The Round Passion: The Crucifixion by Lucas van Leyden depicts a circular scene with Jesus Christ on the cross at the top center. He is crucified with a cloth draped below his waist and nailed to the cross with his arms outstretched. A banner above him bears the inscription "I N G". The border of the circle features an ornate design with leaves and cherubs. On the left side of the circle, a group of soldiers and onlookers are gathered, with one soldier holding a spear. On the right side, a group of people, including a woman who appears to be mourning, are positioned near the bottom. A woman in a dress lies on the ground to the left of the group on the right. The background of the scene includes a cityscape.
