A temple, within a larger structure with arches and square columns or pilasters in front, occupies the foreground. The mostly flat landscape in front is dotted with a few small trees. The background contains mountains and a large sky with a scroll floating in the center that reads, "TEMPLI HIEROSOLYMITANI SCENOGRAPIA / Perspectivische Vorstellung des TEMPELS zu JERUSALEM." The second line is crossed out.
