Sketch for an altarpiece in the church of the Calced Carmelites in Antwerp.
The risen Christ triumphs over sin and death (snake and skeleton) flanked by Melchizedek, Elijah, Saint Paul and Saint Cyril of Alexandria, (associated with the Eucharist, a Christian service or sacrament commemorating the Last Supper, in which bread and wine are consecrated and consumed).
The columns and upper corners offer the patron a choice of architectural motifs.
