This is an etching or engraving depicting a classical landscape scene. On the left side of the image, there is a large, ruined temple with classical columns, some of which are standing while others have fallen. Ruins of other structures are visible around the temple. The landscape includes rocky terrain and a small bridge over a stream in the foreground. In the center and right side of the image, the scene opens up to a view of a broad river or lake, with the far shore visible in the distance. Groups of figures can be seen throughout the image, engaged in various activities. On the near shore, there are several groups of people, some of whom appear to be conversing, while others may be working or resting. In the right background, a couple of boats or barges are present on the water, with figures aboard them. The scene is framed by trees on both sides, with a particularly large tree prominent on the right side of the image. The sky is rendered with care to indicate a dynamic cloudscape. At the bottom corner of the artwork, there is a signature or inscription that reads "N. Poussin inv." suggesting that the composition is after an invention (design) by the artist Nicolas Poussin. This type of work is reflective of the 17th-century classical landscape style, which often aimed to evoke the pastoral landscapes and architecture of antiquity. The page appears to be from a book, given the binding visible on the left edge and the page number "16." printed on the top right. The paper has an aged appearance, with some foxing and discoloration consistent with old prints.
