This panel illustrates the story of the raising of Lazarus. Christ is shown wearing a blue robe and a red cloak, standing at the left of the composition. He is blessing Lazarus who has just risen from the dead. Still wearing his burial shroud he climbs out of his grave, while looking up at his redeemer. A woman kneels beside him, and further back a group of women observe the miraculous event. A group of men (disciples) are huddled together at the right behind Christ. Another two men stand next to him and appear to discuss the event. The scene is set in front of a stone wall with a tree and a ruin visible beyond.
