About this work

This painting depicts a scene with several figures. In the center, a woman sits on a throne-like chair, wearing a long dress and a halo. To her right, an older man with a long white beard and a hat is shown. He is dressed in a long robe and holds a staff in his right hand. The woman and the man are looking at each other. The background of the painting is yellow, with a large structure behind the figures. There are also two angels on either side of the scene, each holding a musical instrument. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of reverence and devotion. The painting is held at the Gemäldegalerie Berlin.
