About this work

This painting shows a group of shirtless men with beards sitting in a row, all holding hands. Behind them is a blue wall with rows of crowns painted on it. To the left, a man stands half inside a small building with a thatched roof. The crowns might hint at these men being saints or kings, but the painting’s simple style keeps it clear and direct.
