Depiction of a church interior. The view shown from an oblique angle, depicts a vast, vaulted hall that leads into another, colonnaded hall. A sepulchral monument is positioned above the arched opening (at the transition to the next hall). Numerous sculptures and monuments are positioned in wall niches in the main hall. Three small figures and a dog are standing at center. Additional groups of people are visible in the distance.
