A group of travelers is walking through a forest. The two front travelers choose the road that leads directly to a village in the distance. However, the wind blows down a tree that threatens to block the path. The falling tree might even pose a danger to the two men. The three back travelers point to a path through the wilderness. Although this path clearly takes a detour, no dangers threaten here. On the back of the print a Dutch text from the next page, Voorzichtig reis Levenslessen uit de natuur., print maker: Marcus Gheeraerts (I), (attributed to), publisher: Gerard de Jode, printer
