About this work

This painting shows two men in bright red robes with gold halos, standing side by side. They wear armor and hold swords, looking serious. Behind them, a dark background makes them stand out. On the right panel, another scene shows a man rising from a tomb, surrounded by a glowing light. The two men are labeled in Greek letters above their heads. The red robes and gold details make them look important. The tomb scene suggests a religious story. Look up cross-hatching to see how shading works in older art.
