The semi-circular panel depicts a representation of the Holy Trinity with the figure of God the Father as the central motif. He holds his son in his arms and the Holy Ghost hovers in front of him in the form of a white dove. God the Father is enveloped in a sumptuous red robe decorated with precious stones along the hem and looks at the viewer. His grey haired head is crowned with an equally opulent tiara. Christ lies on his lap with outstretched arms, his body covered with wounds and blood. His body with only a loincloth covering it is turned towards the Holy Ghost as is his gaze. The central group is framed by a Gloriole, flanked at the sides by swirling cloud formations. Ten cherubs with red, green, blue and orange wings look out from the clouds.
