The image depicts a scene from "Singers' Contest on the Wartburg" by Anton Romako. The scene is set indoors with a stone floor and ornate columns and arches. In the center, a man sits on steps with one knee bent, reaching up with his right hand; another man stands before him, shirtless, with his right arm raised. To the left, a jester and two boys are present; one boy holds a basket. On the right, several men are engaged, some with weapons; one man holds a scroll. The background features curtains, statues, and a distant landscape. The drawing is rendered in shades of gray on a beige background.
