A vertically oriented print in dense black-inked fine lines depicts seven people with light skin tones mourning Christ's limp body. At center, figures support his torso as he lies on the ground. To the right, two bearded men stand; one holds a lidded jar, another a shroud. In the foreground sits a crown of thorns. Behind the group, a hilly landscape leads to a town beneath clouds bearing two coats of arms.
