Pestkranke flehen Christus, Maria und den heiligen Rochus um Hilfe an

This is a drawing of a group of figures in a scene. The upper portion features three figures on clouds, with the central figure holding objects, giving an impression of power. The surrounding figures seem to be in a posture of reverence. In the lower section, multiple figures are shown in various states of movement, with architectural elements in the background. The use of light and shadow, alongside intricate detailing, adds depth to the scene.
