A scene in which a woman stands, on tiptoe, beneath a large pine tree. She holds a caduceus in her right arm, balances a bowl on her right hip, and with her left hand she points somewhere in the distance. She stands at the forefront of a turbulent body of water, with rocks beneath and a cliff in the background. Above is a partly cloudy sky with the silhouette of a bird high above.
Surrounding the title text are a series of pictures—starting from the top left are the tablets featuring the ten commandments; then a large scallop shell alongside a few other snail shells on a beach; followed by a caduceus in the upper right-hand corner. Below is a drawing depicting Moses amongst the bulrushes.
A scene of a boy and a girl on a stone wall in front of a blossoming tree. In the upper right hand corner there is an image of a building with a steeple and two towers.
