The painting shows a man in the center, standing on a platform. He is wearing a white cloth around his waist and has a red cloth draped over his shoulder. His hands are tied in front of him, and he has a crown of thorns on his head. To his left, a man in a turban and robes is holding a cloth. On his right, a man in a white shirt and black shorts is holding a red cloth. The scene is set in front of a wall with columns. The colors are muted, with shades of brown and gray dominating the palette. The overall mood is somber and reflective. The use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figure.
