This drawing shows a group of people split in two. On top, a bearded man in a robe sits on a throne-like arch, holding a book. Around him, robed figures float with their arms out. Below, others kneel or crouch, some with sheep or goats near them. The people above look calm, while those below seem worried or scared. The sheep and goats might stand for good and bad choices.
