Uncolored engraving of two dwarves, a woman on left and a man, bearded, on right; they are clad in European dress. To the left are two hollows in a hill; in the background is a bay, with traditional Greenland kayaks and a spouting whale. Below the engraving is printed text in German, with a title and two columns. Title reads "Die ohnl�_ngst in N�_rnberg befindlichen und nach der Natur abgezeichneten Bildnu��e, der aus der Stra��e//David in Gr̦nl�_ndischen, Familie, welche sich in den Geb�_rgen und grossen H̦hlen aufzuhalten pflegen [etc.]"; it translates to "A guaranteed likeness after Nature recently found in Nurenberg, [showing] a family from on David Street in Greenland, which [...] are accustomed to reside in a large hollow; where the man is 20 inches tall, and 140 years old, and the woman is 70 years old, and 18 inches long"; the text goes on to mention that the existence of a 17-year-old family member, not even 6 inches long, was testified to, and that this 17-year-old died, but his embalmed body can still be seen in a "Laboratorio Chymmico". Text, except for the "Laboratorio Chymmico", is in blackletter.
The last paragraph of the text discusses whale catches.
