Allegorical representation with in the center the female personification of the Roman Church, crowned with a tiara. She tramples a rabbi holding a Hebrew text and the personification of the Roman Empire, who holds an image of Victoria in her hands. Superstition (Idolatria) tries to snatch the image from her. To the left by a tree the female personification of Christian Faith, holding an open Bible in her hands. Before her a priest baptizing a woman. In the foreground several Muslims looking up at a preaching man. One of them holds a tablet. In the background temples and rituals of non-Christian religions are depicted. With a blank margin.
