Etching of a clog-maker working below a counter as a man on a stool smokes and talks to him; a dog sleeps on the roof above.

An etching of a clog-maker working in a low, daylit workshop beneath a wooden counter, while a seated man on a stool outside, pipe in hand, talks to him. A dog sleeps on the roof above a latticed window, and ivy climbs the wall beside a ladder and a lean-to roof.
