Recto: Standing figure of a woman in an elaborate gown. The front panel of the gown, which was originally hinged, has been torn off to refeal the bones of the legs entwined with serpents. In the background on the stone wall are two framed paintings and the words 'Errige oculos et vide eris'.
Verso: A knight is shown attacking with a sword a devil armed with a bow, a young woman with a money bag looking on. German and latin verses are inscribed.
