Español: Escenas del Nuevo Testamento: batalla bajo una luz celestial

Un aguafuerte que muestra una batalla concurrida en un campo en pendiente bajo un cielo nublado. Un haz de luz surge de las nubes sobre una figura luminosa, mientras un portaestandarte a la derecha alza una bandera blanca entre soldados. Un castillo en lo alto de una colina aparece a la izquierda, y figuras caídas yacen en primer plano.
