DescriptionThe image is a landscape of a wooded hillside, sloping down from left to right, that provides the setting for two central male figures; the figure on the left is standing clothed in a white robe with light illuminating from his figure, the figure on the left kneels on the ground clothed in a black coat and gray slacks, a hat on the ground near his feet. The standing figure holds gold plates in his hands; the kneeling figure reaches his hands out towards the plates.On View
