This painting shows two figures sitting side by side on a raised platform. The person on the left wears a dark robe with gold trim and a halo, holding a tall cross. The person on the right has a red robe with a green cloak, also wearing a halo, and holds a closed book with gold letters. Behind them is a simple town with a church and hills in the distance. The book’s gold lettering stands out against the faded colors, hinting at its importance. The figures look calm and formal, with stiff, flat shapes and bright colors. Look up composition to see how artists arrange figures and objects in religious art.
