A horizontally oriented etching and drypoint in black ink depicts Christ with a light skin tone standing centrally, arms extended as light radiates from his head. On the left, figures with light skin tones stand behind a low wall. To the right, others kneel or lie, including one person in a wheelbarrow. Deep shadows fill the cavernous background, contrasting with the luminous, fine-lined crowd gathered before him.
