This drawing features a crucifixion scene, with a central figure on a cross accompanied by two others. Above the central figure is an INRI inscription, and a group of onlookers gather below the crosses. The background shows a cityscape with buildings and spires, as various individuals and soldiers observe the scene. The drawing is detailed and includes expressive characters and a somber atmosphere.
