This is a painting of several figures surrounding a wooden cross. The figures are depicted actively moving the cross, which appears heavy and tilted. They are dressed in colorful garments, with one figure wearing a hat with feathers. The faces of the figures are expressive and bold. The scene is set against a partly clear, blue sky with greenery in the background. This painting resembles medieval woodcut illustrations and is in the style of Albrecht Dürer.
