Front view of the Lake Mariout wine factory. The drawing is in landscape format. It is organized within a frame drawn in ink. Inscriptions are visible in the margins.
The drawing depicts the crushers, press and vats of a wine factory. A nude figure, on the left of the drawing, rests after treading the grapes contained in a basin. In the background, two figures operate the press. The precious liquid is poured into a rectangular vat, shown in the foreground. Amphorae stand nearby.
