The image features a triptych-like format with three horizontal scenes arranged vertically. In the upper portion, a figure is running with a birdcage followed by a dog, surrounded by branches and a perched owl. The middle scene shows a man harnessing a horse to a plow on tilled land, with sparse trees in the background. The bottom scene depicts a pig and two hounds in motion amidst robust trees. The artwork uses detailed etching techniques with black and beige tones, creating an antique look. The color palette is uniform throughout, giving a sense of cohesion to the narratives.
