"Conversus sum in erumpna me.../...Multa flagella peccatoris..." (part of Psalm 31 in the French Book of Hours, known as the St. Alexius Hours). The text is surrounded by colorful acanthus leaves, as well as a brown and white bird flying.

The recto roundel features a man in blue with yellow stockings is speaking to a man in red looking away from him in anguish, with green trees and hills behind them. Between them is white text that reads, "tira[n]s." In the verso roundel the two men from the recto have their hats off and are kneeling to an emperor (labeled in white as "le[m]p[er]eur") on his throne. The emperor is wearing a blue gown, a red robe, and has a golden crown. Above the two men in white is text that reads, "tira[n]s."

On the recto there is the number "22" written in pencil in the bottom right margin, probably a dealer's annotation.
