A figure of Christ on the cross surrounded By, Mary, Mary Magdalen and John stood upon a limestone pedestal on which six old testament figures including Moses and David are carved.

In the outer scene, Mary, daughter of the Duke of Burgundy is surrounded by devotional aids: her book, prayer beads and flowers (carnations symbolizing nails of the cross and irises symbolizing Mary s sorrow) Her lap dog also symbolizes fidelity. As a result of her devotion she is transported into the inner scene in which she becomes an attendant of of the Virgin Mary.

Central scene is an Annunciation in which Mary is reading the Bible and dressed in Renaissance clothing in a Flemish house. To the left, the donors watch the scene through the doorway; to the right Joseph works in a shop which overlooks a Flemish city. In the annunciation scene, the lilies symbolize Mary s purity, the kettle hints at her function as a vessel and the hanging towel is considered to be a Jewish prayer shawl. A small figure of Christ bearing the cross heads in on a beam of light, which is centered on Mary.
