About this work

This painting shows two scenes stacked vertically. The top half has three robed figures—one holding a book, one a staff, and another floating with outstretched arms. The bottom half depicts a group of people carrying a tall cross, with golden halos around their heads. Bright red borders frame both scenes, and the background is packed with gold leaf and intricate patterns. The figures in the top scene might represent a religious moment, while the lower scene shows a procession. The gold leaf suggests this was meant for a special, possibly sacred, space. If you like this style, look up *cross-hatching* next.
