This painting shows a group of people gathered around a woman lying on a bed. The woman is dressed in red and white, with a golden halo around her head. She is surrounded by men in dark robes, some of whom are holding books or rosaries. In the background, there is a red curtain and a yellow wall with a small angel flying above it. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of reverence and solemnity. The painting is reminiscent of the work of the Master of Santa Clara de Palencia.
