The image is a detailed black and white engraving or etching, showing a scene dominated by crocodiles. At the forefront, there are three crocodiles, with one in the center positioned with its mouth slightly open and appearing to be basking or resting. All the crocodiles exhibit detailed scales and texture, indicative of careful artistic work.

The background appears to be a wild, dense riverside or swamp environment. There are numerous additional crocodiles in the background, some partially submerged in the water and others resting on the banks. The water's surface is rippled, suggesting the movement of the crocodiles and other unseen creatures.

Also noticeable in the scene are several birds, possibly herons or similar wading birds, congregating on the right side of the image. They are seen standing elegantly in groups on the vegetation that overhangs the water.

In the very background, hinted at through the mist or haze, there are more birds in flight and what seem to be silhouetted landforms or mountains.

On the top of the image, the text reads "Die Krokodile," which is German for "The Crocodiles," and there are scribbled words that appear to be "Himmel & Erde," meaning "Heaven & Earth" in German. The artist's signature is present at the bottom right, though not clearly legible, and there is a date or a figure, although it's not clearly discerned either. This artwork captures the essence of a dense riverside ecosystem, teeming with crocodiles and birdlife, rendered with a high level of detail and skill.
