      This is a print of a man holding an axe surrounded by chaos and destruction. It is depicted in bold black and white lines, some thick and some thin. The central man is standing with his body twisted and an axe raised overhead. He is looking down and to the left, towards another man crouching near the bottom-left corner who is clutching two young babies in his hands and has a swastika armband on his arm. This man has a small mustache and hair slicked to one side, and he is hunched, looking up at the man with the axe. Behind this man is a crowd of other people, including what look like soldiers and civilians holding scythes and pitchforks. Above this group are swirling lines similar to flames. In the bottom-right corner, partially visible behind the legs of the man with the axe, are what looks like a church and gallows with several bodies hanging from it. More bodies lie on the ground under the gallows and in front of the church.
