About this work

This painting shows four figures standing side by side, all dressed in old-fashioned robes. The first person on the left wears a bright red dress with a green belt, while the others are in darker, gold-trimmed clothes. Their faces glow with a soft light, and each has a halo around their head. The background looks faded, like it’s been worn over time. The figures stand on a simple ground with no extra details.
