This painting shows a nude man standing in a landscape. He's holding a sign that says "Pyrgoteles" in one hand and a tool in the other. The man is standing next to a large, round object that looks like a piece of machinery. The background of the painting is a landscape with hills and clouds. The overall mood of the painting is one of industry and hard work. The artist who created this painting was Wechtlin I, Hans.
