Abraham, Isaac and the angel are depicted standing on a bare patchof ground. Abraham stands on the left, examining the knife in his hand (with a look of satisfaction). Isaak stands at the center of the scene, with his head inclined, waiting
for the execution. The angel stands behind them to the right, holding a lamb. Barely legible inscriptions are written above each figure. Beneath the patch of ground where the figures stand are several lines of illegible script.
