A vertically oriented oil painting in loose, thick brushstrokes depicts Christ, a man with light skin tone and a slender body, nailed to a cross. He wears a white loincloth and crown of thorns, looking upward with an open mouth. A paper with Latin text sits above his head. Several winged cherubs surround him against a dark, shadowy background, including one at the base who holds a long pole.
