The Einsiedeln panorama shows the city of Jerusalem at the time of Christ's crucifixion on Calvary on an area of 1000 m2 of canvas and 1000 m2 of sculptural foreground. The scene is framed by the landscape, with groups of pilgrims and caravans in the desert sand, country houses, tents of poor people and the tomb of Christ. The focal points are the three crosses with the dying Jesus in the middle, Antonia Castle, where Pilate resided and condemned Jesus, the marble temple, the Mount of Olives and the Moabite Mountains. The artists were on site around 1890 to incorporate the natural landscape and cityscape into the picture according to the historical description. The sight of the giant circular painting transports visitors to the "Holy Land".
