This painting shows a scene of Jesus Christ on the cross. It's a small triptych, a portable altar that could be carried in a leather case. The style and composition are similar to other works from the same time period, suggesting it was made in a workshop that produced similar pieces. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of sfumato.
