This painting shows a funeral procession in a forest, with people in medieval clothing carrying a body on a stretcher. The group is walking along a dirt path, surrounded by tall trees, and some of them are looking down or covering their faces. In the background, there's a body of water and a castle on the other side, with a yellow sky above. The painting has a lot of dark colors, but there are some lighter shades on the clothes and the sky.
