The image shows a low-angle exterior view of a relief sculpture on the facade of the Wendalinus Basilica in Sankt Wendel, Germany. The sculpture is set within a Gothic arch and features a central figure of the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus. To the left, a male figure kneels, holding a book and an axe. To the right, another male figure kneels, holding a lantern. Below the central figures, a relief depicts Adam and Eve with a serpent. The sculpture is made of stone and is weathered, with moss and lichen present on the lower parts of the facade and the surrounding stonework. Green copper downspouts are visible on either side of the sculpture, showing signs of verdigris. The background consists of the basilica's stone construction and a leaded glass window.
