The image is a black and white etching showing a scene with an elderly, bearded man sitting on the ground in a contemplative pose. Significant detail is given to his muscular structure and the texture of his beard and hair. He appears to be reading or studying a book that he holds closely with both hands. Beside him, there's a human skull placed on the ground, which often symbolizes mortality and the transient nature of life. Additionally, there's a lion lying next to the man, and it appears docile and at peace in the man's company. The background suggests a barren, outdoor landscape with a tree, clouds, and what might be a distant mountain or structure. The elements in the picture such as the book, the skull, and the lion alongside the elderly man are rich in symbolism and might suggest the man is a figure of wisdom or a philosopher contemplating life, death, and perhaps his own mortality. This kind of imagery is often associated with Christian iconography, possibly related to a saint or hermit known for their scholarly pursuits and proximity to the divine reflected by the harmony with nature, as indicated by the lion.
