The piece is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of its time, rendered with tempera colors, gold leaf, silver leaf, and ink on parchment. The image depicts Christ seated majestically on a throne, radiating divine power and grace. His regal presence is accentuated by the intricate details of his flowing robes and halo adorned with golden hues. With one hand raised in blessing and the other holding an open book symbolizing wisdom and knowledge, Christ embodies both authority and compassion.
