A painting depicting an aerial view of a resurrection scene set in an agricultural landscape. In the top center, there is a large elevated nude figure with their arms on their sides, their head and neck stretched upwards. Below the figure on the ground in a smaller scale are scattered plinths with human figures or symbols on top. Naked human figures are scattered in groups laying, praying, holding signs, sitting, walking, and reading sheets from the ground.
