Biblical scene depicting Saint Eusebius, a bearded man, seated on a cloud with his arms spread wide, looking towards heaven. A light shines through the clouds above, and the cloud upon which Saint Eusebius stands is carried aloft by angels and cherubs, flanked on either side by small winged cherub heads. The scene is watched from below by more angels and cherubs playing musical instruments.
