This image is a black-and-white illustration with a religious theme. At the center is a depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, who is shown on a cross with a halo around his head, a clear sign of his sanctity. To the right of Jesus is a kneeling figure, likely representing the Virgin Mary, also with a halo and in an attitude of sorrow or prayer directed towards Jesus.
At the top of the image are the words "S. MARIA" and "DOLORV.", suggesting a reference to Saint Mary (the Virgin Mary) and her sorrow, which is a common theme in Christian art and refers to the Seven Sorrows of Mary, specifically her grief during Jesus' crucifixion.
The image is contained within an oval border, and below Jesus' feet is the land, suggesting Golgotha, the site of the crucifixion. In the background, there are simple representations of buildings, possibly indicating Jerusalem, and the sky above.
At the bottom of the illustration, there's text that seems to read "Israel ex." and "APRIL.” The phrase "Israel ex." could be a signature or attribution to the artist, and "APRIL" indicates the month, possibly associating the image with specific liturgical timing or a devotional practice in the month of April, which is when Christians observe Holy Week and Easter, commemorating the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.
