Grabado de un águila que vuela sobre el agua hacia un ratón y una rana, con un acantilado, un pueblo y una ciudad lejana, y un lema en latín arriba.

Águila que se lanza sobre un ratón y una rana, fábula de Esopo

Un grabado muestra un águila grande que desciende en picada sobre aguas agitadas hacia un ratón y una rana que nadan juntos cerca de la orilla. Detrás, un acantilado rocoso, un pequeño pueblo y una ciudad lejana con barcos de vela se extienden bajo un cielo nublado, y sobre la escena aparece el lema latino AMICI TEMPORE ADVERSO.
