Recto side: A detailed sketch of The Deposition, depicting a dramatic scene with multiple figures; a central figure being lowered from a cross. The central figure is naked; several figures surround and assist. The scene portrays intense movement and emotion. Verso side: A sketch of The Deposition with similar composition and figures but drawn with less detail. A woman wearing a long dress stands prominently in the foreground. Several figures are positioned around and behind her. The background on both sides shows additional figures and cloudy skies. The style appears to be Baroque, with expressive lines and shading. The artwork is attributed to Christian Wink.
