The artwork depicts an elaborate vase perched atop a pedestal adorned with three grotesque faces. The vase is decorated with intricate carvings and appears to be resting in a garden setting with trees framing the scene.

This etching exemplifies the Rococo style with its emphasis on ornate ornamentation, playful imagery, and a sense of delicate beauty.
