The image depicts a sepia-toned illustration of a scene with six men removing a crucified figure from a cross. The crucified figure is naked and appears lifeless. Two men standing are on a ladder on the left side of the cross and two on the right. The man on the right side of the cross appears to be removing nails from the hands. A fifth man sits on the ground on the left, supporting the bottom of the cross. A sixth man sits on the ground on the right. In the background, there are mountains and a small town or village. The sky is empty and featureless. The illustration is framed by a thin black line, and there is a beige border around it. The overall mood of the image is somber and reflective.
