Christ rides on a donkey towards the city gate of Jerusalem. People spread their cloaks on the road, and wave with twigs of the palm trees. Letters stand next to various elements of the scene. Above the image a title. Below it six lines of verse and a reference to Matthew 20: 30-34. The print is part of an album.
