About this work

This painting shows a man sitting on a rock, wearing a red robe with a black pattern underneath. He has a halo around his head and is holding a white object in his right hand. To his left is a smaller figure in a red robe, and to his right is a green-robed figure holding a red object. The background is green with dark clouds and a tree branch. The man in the center is the main focus of the painting, and his halo suggests he may be a religious figure. The other two figures are smaller and seem to be attending to him. This painting is held at the Brooklyn Museum.
