A vertically oriented etching in dense black lines depicts a woman kneeling in prayer within a cathedral. Facing away, she wears a checkered shawl and long gown at a wooden pew. Above her, a large relief of a hooded figure holding a child hangs on a textured wall. To the left, an arched opening reveals a shadowed area with seated figures. Fine hatching creates deep shadows across the stone architecture.
