The Mysteries of the Passion: The Descent of the Holy Spirit by Jacques Callot. Black and white drawing on textured white paper. The drawing is circular, framed by lines that form a border around the circle. Inside the circle, a group of people are gathered in a room with a tiled floor. The room has a flat ceiling with lines suggesting texture or pattern. There are three visible archways in the background, two on the sides and one at the back. A woman sits at the center of the room, surrounded by rays of light. A bird, likely a dove, is depicted flying above, emitting lines that radiate outward. The people in the room are dressed in robes, some sitting and some kneeling. The overall composition has a central figure and radiating lines emphasizing the divine event.
