An engraving of a country estate named "Amstel-Rust". The scene depicts a grand house with a central gabled section and an arched entrance gate, flanked by perfectly manicured, tall trees in a symmetrical arrangement.

In the foreground, a person on horseback is positioned near the gate, and several other figures—including pedestrians, a child, and a dog—are shown near a canal and a path. A small bridge is visible on the far right.
