The sculpture depicts a scene of a figure being lowered from a crucifix using a ladder. The figure on the cross appears elongated, surrounded by several people gathered around the base. The sculpture is a rectangular relief piece primarily golden in color, with intricate detailing capturing the folds of clothing and expressions of those involved. It has two holes at the top, possibly for mounting or hanging.
