About this work

This image shows a circular engraving with three nude figures and a fourth in the background. The central figure is a man holding a bow and arrow, with his right arm raised. To his left is a woman holding a bow, and to his right is another woman holding a shield. In the background, a fourth figure is partially visible. The engraving features intricate cross-hatching, which creates a sense of depth and texture. The figures are depicted in a classical style, reminiscent of Renaissance art.
