The image depicts an old engraving or etching print featuring religious iconography. It shows three standing figures, likely saints or religious figures, surrounded by decorative scrollwork and text. The central figure appears to be Jesus Christ, with a nimbus or halo around his head, flanked by two other saintly figures. Below the engraving is printed text in Latin that reads "BRIXIÆ EXCUDEBAT PETRUS VESCOVI", likely indicating the engraver or publisher of the print, Petrus Vescovi from Brescia, Italy.
