Black and white engraving depicting a crowd of people gathered around a central figure lying on the ground. The central figure is naked from the waist up with their head tilted back and their body supported by two people. The central figure is surrounded by approximately 14 other people, some of whom are dressed in head coverings and robes. Some of the people are looking down at the central figure while others have their faces contorted in grief. In the background, there is a tree with bare branches and a hill with a few trees and a cloudy sky. A cross-like structure is visible on the top left. The engraving is framed by a thin black border. The scene depicts The Deposition, created by Albrecht Dürer.
