A bearded, long-haired male figure crucified on a cross, with a halo and visible wounds
Detailed Description
A vertical rectangular panel depicts a male figure crucified on a dark brown cross against a dark, textured background. The figure, with a light skin tone, has long, reddish-brown hair and a beard. His head is tilted to his right, with eyes closed. A golden halo, marked with red stripes, encircles his head. His bare, lean torso shows visible ribs and musculature. Streaks of red are present on his chest, and a prominent, jagged wound is visible on the left side of his torso, with red liquid flowing from it. His arms are outstretched, with hands not visible, secured to the horizontal beam of the cross. A light brown loincloth with visible folds drapes around his hips and upper thighs, extending downwards. The lower parts of his legs are mostly obscured by the fabric and the bottom edge of the panel. The cross itself is dark brown with thin golden outlines along its visible edges.
