The monumental print reproduces the figure of an écorché or flayed man sculpted by the Bolognese artist Ercole Lelli. Seen from the back, the figure stands on a pedestal and has the left arm raised as if supporting a stone slab engraved with the name of Lelli. This image was taken before the conservation process at Getty Research Institute.
