The scene is set in a quaint, sunlit room filled with various potted cacti, showcasing the pastor's dedication and passion for his unusual pastime. The composition highlights Spitzweg's skillful use of light and shadow, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that draws the viewer into the pastor's world.

Spitzweg's attention to detail is evident in the meticulous rendering of the cacti, each plant depicted with precision and care. The pastor himself is portrayed with a gentle humor, his expression one of serene concentration as he tends to his beloved plants. This portrayal reflects Spitzweg's characteristic blend of affection and satire, gently poking fun at the eccentricities of his subjects while celebrating their individuality.
