In the center of the ornate room is a golden four-poster bed. A dark-haired woman, perhaps with a crown or halo, lies on it. Kneeling at its side is the Pope, who is dressed opulently in a vestment with a long red train, white train, golden robe and golden hat. Behind him stand a priest or bishop in a reddish-purple vestment and a man in black and white vestments who holds his staff. To the far left, a gate keeps a crowd of onlookers outside the room. Behind the priest and to the right side of the bed are ghostly-gray angels. Of the two on the right, one plays a harp while the larger holds a list. Light shines down on the top of the bed.
The upper part of the card shows Jesus in white and gold with a halo teaching the 12 apostles. The lower half is separated from it by the words "Evtes docete omnes gentes" which is loosely translated as 'teach all nations'. The lower card depicts a columned building, perhaps St. Peter's church or the papal residence, with golden rays of light shooting out from it. "Anno Santo MCMXXV" or 'Holy Year 1925' is printed beneath it. To the left is a gold medallion with a pope's figure in profile, labelled "Pius XI Pontmax." To the right is a gold medallion depicting a door and "Porta Santa", or 'holy door.'
In a golden canopied bed lies a figure in white with long brown hair, possibly a man or woman. Behind the bed, a priest in black and another male figure pray and speak to them. In the foreground, the pope dressed in red is seated on a chair next to the bed while a woman kneels next to it and clasps the person's hand. There is a description below that cannot be made out.
