The image depicts several figures on a brown background. In the foreground, there is a partial depiction of a woman facing to the right with her head turned slightly to her left. She has long, wavy hair and is wearing a robe. To the left of her is a drawing of a lamb. Above the woman is a detailed drawing of a bird with outstretched wings. To the left is a drawing of a man's face with a crown of thorns, enclosed within a frame. The composition is surrounded by a plain, brown paper background with corner cuts.
