This painting shows Jesus Christ in the center, wearing a red robe and a white cloth draped over his left shoulder. He has long brown hair and a halo around his head. In his right hand, he holds a book with a red border, and with his left hand, he makes a gesture. On either side of Jesus are 12 smaller images of men, likely his apostles. Each of these men has a halo and is dressed in robes of different colors. The background of the painting is dark green, and the entire scene is framed by a border of yellow and orange hues. The painting's style and composition suggest a strong religious influence. To learn more about the artist's technique, look up cross-hatching.
