The scene depicted showcases a group of men hard at work inside a slaughterhouse. Dressed in traditional attire, they are diligently engaged in their tasks, surrounded by various tools of their trade. One man wears an apron and wields an axe while another tends to a bull with utmost care. A calf stands nearby, adding to the liveliness of the composition. Amman's attention to detail is evident not only in his portrayal of the workers but also through his inclusion of calligraphy and typeface elements within the print itself.
