A vertically oriented engraving in dense black-inked fine lines depicts figures with light skin tones in an architectural setting. Christ, with hands bound, faces Herod who sits on a throne beneath a fabric canopy. To the left, armored soldiers hold long spears, one pushing Christ's shoulder. In the foreground, a figure in a turban sits with their back to us. Arched openings and onlookers fill the background.
