The image depicts a black-and-white drawing of a scene. The scene shows a group of people gathered around a woman sitting on the floor, holding a baby. The woman sits on the right side, wearing a long dress and has long hair. A man stands before her, presenting the baby with an object. Behind them, three men in turbans and robes stand and face each other. One of them holds an object in his hands. On the left side, a man stands, partially out of frame, holding a long object under his arm. In the background, there is an opening showing a roof with a star above, and another building with a roof and chimney. The overall composition is enclosed by a border. The scene is titled "The Adoration of the Magi" and is by Albrecht Dürer.
