DescriptionA group of figures in a rocky space. A bare-chested male figure is being lowered into a box. Figures at the head, feet, and side are holding the male figure. A female figure in the lower right kneels and holds his arm. A circlet of thorns and a lidded jar are on the ground next to her. Four more figures behind the box are crying. On a rocky ledge above the scene are two infant figures. In the upper left are two more figures standing underneath an arched opening.On View
