This image appears to be a print of an etching or engraving. It showcases a lone goat standing in a pastoral landscape with a rustic environment that includes trees, bushes, and rocks. The goat is predominantly placed in the center of the composition and is depicted in profile facing to the left of the image. Its fur appears shaggy and it has prominent horns curving backwards. In the bottom left corner of the image, within what seems to be the depicted picture frame, there is a text that says, "Potter inv. // M. De Bije fec. // N. Visscher excu." which indicates the artist who drew the original design (Potter), the person who made the engraving (M. De Bije), and the publisher or person who distributed the engraving (N. Visscher). Above the image on the right, there is handwriting that seems to reference a catalog or inventory number ("no. 282. Flamands.") and possibly a classification ("8. Estat."). The background has some handwritten characters or marks that might be related to cataloging or inventory practices as well. The paper on which the image is printed shows signs of age with slight discoloration and it has ample margins around the print. The handcrafted qualities of the etching, along with the writing, suggest this could be a historical piece, potentially linked to a series of artworks or a collection.

The image depicts a pastoral scene with a goat standing in a wooded landscape. The goat is shown in profile, with its long, shaggy fur and curly horns clearly visible. In the background, there is a tree with lush foliage, and the landscape appears rocky and hilly. The image also includes an inscription at the bottom, which seems to provide some additional information, though I cannot decipher the text.
