The image depicts a circular scene with a white background. The circular scene shows a black and white drawing of a crucifixion. The man on the cross is wearing a loincloth and has a halo around his head. He appears to be nailed to the cross with his arms outstretched. There are several people around him, some standing on ladders and others on the ground. One person on the left is holding a bowl or plate. Another person on the right appears to be kneeling. There are two people on either side of the image standing on poles or crosses. The background shows a cityscape with buildings in the distance. The sky is cloudy. The circular scene has a dotted line around its edge. The image appears to be printed on textured paper.
