Sleeping Man
A sleeping man lies sprawled on the ground in the foreground, his head resting on his arm beside a wicker basket, while a sheep stands at the left edge. Behind him, a tree and a towered town fill a distant landscape, all rendered in fine, dense engraved lines, with the date 1523 inscribed along the bottom.
