This carved relief depicts a group of people in interaction. A central man lies horizontally and is carried by several other people, including two larger, muscular people and a group of small, winged figures. In the background, standing people wearing veils observe the scene, and a person to the right holds a staff or candle. The people stand between trees, plants, and small rocks. The sculpture is crafted from a golden-toned material with darker areas of patina in some of the deeper lines.
