The image shows a central person standing in a partially open tomb with a halo around their head. They are positioned upright with one knee bent, holding a staff with a cross and a banner attached. The person's facial features include long hair parted in the middle and a serene expression. They are dressed in flowing robes. Surrounding this central figure are four other individuals; two on either side of the tomb appear to be sleeping or have collapsed, wearing armor, and a third appears to be a winged angel leaning on the tomb. The angel is looking towards the central figure. Another figure at the bottom right, dressed in medieval attire, appears to be sleeping with one hand supporting his head. The background is blank, highlighting the figures in the foreground.
