This woodcut depicts a scene from the Bible, with Christ and the Woman of Samaria at a well. Christ sits on the edge of the well, while the woman stands opposite him, holding a bucket. The background features a landscape with trees and buildings. The woman is dressed in a long robe, and Christ wears a simple tunic. The well is a central element in the scene, with a tree branch extending over it. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation.
