The image showcases a skilled craftsman at work inside a bustling brewery. In the center of the composition stands the brewer himself, fully engrossed in his task. He is surrounded by various brewing tools and equipment, including an enormous vat and a large barrel. These items symbolize both the artistry and scale of beer production during this time. The attention to detail in this woodcut is remarkable; every line and stroke captures the essence of each element depicted within it. From the intricate calligraphy on display to the carefully rendered facial expressions of other men working alongside him, we can truly appreciate Amman's skill as an artist.

It offers us a glimpse into not only how beer was made but also how important it was for German society at that time.
