content: Vertical rectangle. Designs for frames intended to be carved in wood for one of the roads in the stations of the Cross, with alternative suggestions. The left half of the design suggests an ovoidal shape of the painting, a cross on top, and a laurel festoon around the bottom; a scroll bears the inscription: "STAZI." The right half suggests an oblong moulded frame. A palmette motif is shown on top. Crossed palm branches form the frame for the inscription, at the bottom.
