A group of figures gathers around an altar at the center of the scene, where flames rise up as an elderly man with a long white beard extends his hands in a gesture of offering. To the right of the altar, a young man with curly hair carries a heavy bundle of wood on his shoulder, his muscular form twisting as he steps forward. Behind the altar, two women stand close together; one wears a white headscarf and brown robe, while the other in green raises her hand in a gesture of explanation or encouragement.

In the foreground, three male figures kneel and crouch around a ram, whose head and horns are clearly visible at the bottom edge of the composition. One of these men, draped in a red cloth, sits on the ram’s back and reaches out to grasp the hand of another figure, who bends forward as if in the act of presenting the animal for sacrifice. To the left, a powerful ox and a horse, both rendered with careful attention to anatomy and expression, look out from the background, their heads emerging from the shadows.

The figures’ bodies are modeled with strong, sculptural forms, their muscles and limbs described in smooth, confident strokes that reveal the artist’s mastery of the human figure. Light falls from the upper left, illuminating the faces and torsos of the main figures and casting deep shadows that create a sense of depth and drama. Warm earth tones dominate the color scheme, with reds, browns, and ochres contrasting against the pale flesh and the cool green of the altar cloth.

Small details, such as the veins on the ram’s face, the folds of drapery, and the expressive hands, add to the vivid realism of the scene. The subject is Noah's Sacrifice, a moment described in the title and source description, showing Noah and his family making an offering after the flood.
