Long description

A coloured image showing hundreds of spectators at a public execution. On the right of the image is wooden stadium-style seating. In the foreground, people sell food and drink. The gallows are visible in the distance. To the left of the image is the procession of the condemned apprentice, whose cart is followed by mounted guards with pikes. The scene is chaotic and most people in the image are staring towards the gallows. At the bottom of the image is a quotation from Proverbs Chapter 1 Verses 27-8.
