Un alquimista en su laboratorio con su familia, según Brueghel

Un grabado en blanco y negro muestra un laboratorio de alquimista abarrotado de alambiques de cobre, frascos y fuelles, donde un hombre sentado se inclina sobre una mesa de vasijas de vidrio. Una mujer y niños cruzan la sala, y por una ventana a la derecha, unas figuras aparecen en un pueblo nevado junto a una casa de pobres.
