In the center of the representation of Christ hanging over five allegorical figures. These represent the four then-known continents - "Europe" in white dress, "Asia" with a turban, "Africa" ​​in the red robe with a spear and "America" ​​with spring frost - and for paganism. The latter is shown at the bottom left by a backward fallen man with his left arm comprises an idol. Behind this can be seen on top of the weggekippte ark. Top right, however, the figure of Ecclesia is with a chalice, cross and the keys of St. Peter. Great importance in this painting the picture lighting to the pronounced chiaroscuro. The light coming from the left light illuminates Christ from the left and so does his wounded side clearly visible. Much more the character of a phenomenon is evoked by these light mood. On the dating of this important work of the precocious and died young Holzer prevails in the research remains disagreement. According to tradition, the painting was once signed and dated, with the annual number has been read differently than in 1730 and the 1739th Whether the great maturity that we encounter in this picture, it seems the later dating credible.
