This is an image of an engraving depicting a dramatic scene from classical mythology. The central figure is a powerfully muscled man, implying great strength, in a dynamic pose about to strike downward with a club he holds high above his head. He is entangled with and standing over a large lion, which he seems to be overpowering and subduing. Swirling around them are additional smaller figures that appear to be cherubs, suggesting a mythological or allegorical context. The composition is highly detailed, with the man's musculature and the lion's fur rendered with fine, precise lines, characteristic of classical engraving techniques. On the base below the scene, there is a line of text that attributes the work to "ADRIANVS DE VRIES HAGLENI.CAES:M̄ SCVLPTOR INVENTOR." Next to the text is a signature reading "Ioannes Müller sculp[sit]" and the date "A° 1617". These inscriptions indicate that the image is likely based on a sculpture by Adrian de Vries, a Mannerist sculptor, and was engraved by Johannes Müller in 1617. The use of Latin suggests the learned context in which such art would be created and appreciated during the early 17th century.

The image depicts a detailed and dramatic engraving of a classical sculpture. The central figure in the artwork is a muscular male, depicted in the nude, with exaggerated, well-defined musculature typical of classical representations of heroic figures. He stands in a dynamic pose, holding a club raised above his head with his right hand, as if he is about to strike. His left hand appears to be gripping the bodies of two lion-like creatures, which he is subduing. The lions, with their fierce expressions and powerful bodies, are writhing beneath the man's hold, their mouths open in a dynamic struggle. The composition suggests a scene of intense action and power, capturing a moment of heroic triumph. Below the figure, there is a base that supports the dramatic scene, with an inscription that reads "ADRIANUS DE VRIES HAGIEN.CA.S".M. SCULPTOR INVENTOR." The engraving showcases the skill of the artist in rendering intricate details, textures, and shadows, giving a sense of three-dimensionality and movement to the figures. This work likely pays homage to classical mythology or legendary tales of heroism.
