- Engraving corresponding to Plate 43 of Civilisation, belonging to the Popular Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Sciences and Arts, made by Federico Gillman, and formed according to the Iconographic Encyclopaedia and the Conversations Lexicon of Germany.
- The engraving depicts performances and characters from the 16th and 17th centuries, including the 16th-century Nuremberg processional costume and German popular entertainments from 1535.
- In the upper margin is the title ‘CIVILISATION’, and in the upper right-hand corner is printed ‘Lam. 43’, which identifies it as engraving number 43 of a series on civilisations.
- In the lower margin are the identifications of the different performances and characters such as: a German official in charge of pronouncing the toasts at the feasts of the year 1674, etc.
- Intaglio etching on steel, although another technique could also have been used.
- It is in single-colour black tone, very well inked, centred with acceptable margins and with a good stamping.
- The fact that the engraving has a distinctive mark or contrast is of great importance in order to be able to identify data such as the engraver, the artist, the place where it was printed and other details.
