The artwork consists of detailed lines and intricate shapes arranged in an abstract composition. The shapes resemble floral patterns and human figures, with a central scene showing a group of people. Above the central figures, there are smaller angelic forms and decorative scrolls, forming a symmetrical structure topped with a figure holding a staff. The composition is framed with swirling leaves and abstract embellishments, reminiscent of a tapestry or decorative frieze showcasing a blend of reality and myth.
