- The engraving depicts various important events between the 17th and 18th centuries in Germany and Poland, including the funeral of a German countess, the coronation celebrations of the people of Frankfurt, etc.
- In the upper margin is the title ‘CIVILISATION’, and in the upper right-hand corner is printed ‘Lam. 44’, which identifies it as engraving number 44 in a series on civilisations.
- In the lower margin are the identifications of the different important acts that appear in the engraving, such as a processional entrance of Charles VII in Munich in 1750, the imperial coronation in 1630, the assembly of the notables of Poland in the 18th century, etc.
- Chalcographic etching on steel, although another technique could also have been used.
- Made in black monochrome tone, very well inked, centred with acceptable margins and with a good stamping.
