The image depicts a male figure lying horizontally on his back with his hands crossed over his midsection. His head is slightly elevated on a pillow or fabric, and his eyes are closed. He has long wavy hair, and a cloth is draped around his waist. There are marks on his hands and feet, and draped linens and a crown of thorns are nearby. The setting is a stone-like enclosure with a carved inscription.
