Vertical rectangle. Recto: the available space is nearly filled with the figures of Christ, Pilate, two soldiers and a crowd. A man and part of the temple in the background, left. At the right edge, part of the framing line of another design. Verso: horizontally: Zeuxis sits in the center of a room, painting. At left is a platform with a girl posing. It is surrounded by two seated girls and a standing one. The latter combs her hair. The fifth girl watches Zeuxis at work. An old man apparently grinds colors at a table in the right foreground. Caption: "Apollo ? s. fanciuli." "Apollo" has been struck out and "Zeusi" written under it. Below framing line, near the lower edge part of the upper framing line of another design.
