The image depicts three figures. In the center, a figure is in a crucified position on a cross with arms outstretched.

On the left, a figure stands with hands clasped in prayer, wearing a robe and a hooded cloak with closed eyes. On the right, a figure holds an open book, looking down, wearing robes with curly hair falling to the shoulders. All figures have halos around their heads. The background is plain, emphasizing the figures.
