A sketch of a religious scene in red and grey pencil on off-white paper. The scene depicts a central figure in a long robe holding an object in front of their body with both hands. The figure appears to be standing on a platform or step, and is surrounded by other figures. Seven figures are present. The central figure stands in the center and there are three figures on either side. The three figures to the right are on a lower level than the central figure. The two figures to the left are on a similar level to the central figure. The figure on the far left is bending forward at the waist. The room has a flat ceiling with some kind of decorative element hanging from it. The walls appear to have vertical lines running down them. The paper has a thin tan border around the edge. The paper appears slightly discolored and has some darker spots.
