The image is a black-and-white print with the title "The Incantation" engraved by Léonard Gaillard, based on an artwork by David Teniers the Younger, a Flemish Baroque painter. The scene depicted shows a dark, mystical setting where four hooded figures gather around a table adorned with various objects. One of the figures, cloaked in black, is performing an incantation, raising a skeletal arm toward the center of the composition. Nearby, there’s a skull, an open book, and a few glass bottles, which enhance the eerie atmosphere. In the background, shadows of flying creatures like bats and a smoke plume add to the gothic and supernatural theme of the print. The detailed shading and meticulous line work contribute to the mysterious and somber mood of the piece. The text at the top identifies the artist, and the bottom includes the title "The Incantation" along with the engraver's name.

The image displays an etching or engraving that shows an interior scene with two figures concentrated on an intense activity that could be interpreted as alchemical or magical. At the top of the image, it is credited to "DAVID TENIERS LE JEUNE" and dated "Sirouy 1860." The scene is titled "THE INCANTATION" with an etching by J.J. Grandville. The central character on the left is hunched over a book, which appears to be a tome of knowledge or spells, and is pointing towards the open pages. This figure is surrounded by various objects that suggest occult or scientific activities, including a skull, some books, and a small container with a smoking substance. The character on the right is facing away from the viewer, looking toward a billowing cloud of smoke where a spectral figure or apparition seems to be emerging. Above, in the darkened background, there are two flying creatures, one of which might be an owl, a symbolism often associated with wisdom or the occult. There's also an artist’s signature or inscription on the bottom right corner of the image, though the specific details are not clearly visible. The aged appearance of the paper and the classical style of the etching give this artwork a historical, old-world feel, and suggest it may depict a scene of sorcery or an experiment from an esoteric tradition. The overall atmosphere is one of mystery and arcane practice.
