This print shows a man sitting on a ledge, legs dangling over the edge, looking relaxed. Behind him is a small house and trees, and above him are three smaller scenes: a rider on horseback, a house in a forest, and a woman carrying a basket. The whole image is framed by leaves and branches, like a window or a stage. The print looks old, with some smudges and wear. The artist’s name, *Tischbein*, is written at the bottom, along with some German text that might describe the scenes. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like this.
