The image depicts a man lying on a wooden platform, his arms outstretched and bound by ropes. He has a crown on his head and appears to be naked with visible ribs. Above him, several people are present: four men stand around the platform wearing robes and hats; one of them holds a long object. Three angels are flying above, two play musical instruments and one holds a child. A woman sits above, to the right. In the background, there are decorative elements, including a green patterned border at the bottom with a banner featuring text in gold letters and a beige background with black border. A radiant figure with a halo is surrounded by stars and floral motifs. Several other figures are present around the border.
