The image depicts a massive, light brown limestone cliff face located at the Cave Church (St. Simon the Tanner Monastery) in the Mokattam Mountain area, Manshiyat Nasser, Cairo, Egypt. The sky above is overcast and light grey. The rock face is extensively carved and painted with Christian religious iconography. Near the upper-left, Arabic script and the English phrase "WILL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS WITH GREAT POWER AND GLORY" are etched into the rock. Below this text, a large, colored relief carving of a robed figure, presumably Jesus Christ, is shown seated with the Greek letters Alpha and Omega (ΑΩ) on his chest, accompanied by multiple winged angelic figures carved in lower relief. Toward the upper-right, an illuminated section of the cliff features a large relief carving of a robed figure with outstretched arms, depicted in an ascending posture. Below this, a group of standing figures, also carved and painted in relief, are visible. Further down and to the right, yellow artificial lighting illuminates a lower section, where a more elaborate, multi-figure diorama-like scene, possibly a Nativity, is set within a carved alcove at the base of the cliff. White relief carvings of angels are visible on the rock outside this alcove. Several green palm trees are situated at the base of the rock face in the lower-central and lower-left areas. A thin, dark cable or wire traverses the upper sky and rock face diagonally. A dark metal structure, appearing as a platform or scaffolding, is visible on the highest point of the cliff against the sky on the upper-right. A vertical dark line, possibly a utility conduit, runs down the right side of the illuminated rock face. No living individuals are present in the scene.
