An engraved vignette depicting a church building with a tower on a rocky hill. To the left of the church sits an allegorical female figure holding a chalice and a small cross traditionally representing Faith. To the right, another female figure sits with an open book on her lap, beside a smoking altar or censer traditionally representing Religion or Devotion. A sun with radiating beams shines in the sky above. The engraver's signature "Uhlich sc." Latin: "sculpsit," meaning "he engraved it" appears in the bottom left corner.
