In the image, there is a detailed etching portraying a scene from presumably the 16th to the 17th century. In the foreground, there is a large cannon with wheels positioned on uneven ground with cannonballs scattered around. To the right, there are four figures standing, appearing to inspect the cannon or converse about it. One is wearing a turban and robes, suggesting he may be of high rank or an official. The backdrop reveals a pastoral setting, with a village surrounded by fields and a distant mountainous landscape. Notable are the intricate linework and the hatching techniques used to create texture and depth, which is characteristic of engravings from this period. Given the presence of the large dated tree on the left (with the year 1518 on it) and clouds in the sky, the scene has a dynamic feeling, with the juxtaposition of the stillness of the village and the implied power of the cannon in the front.
