Brief Description

Fragment of a painting: two haloed figures, one above another, the upper holding a staff

Detailed Description

The image is a vertical fragment of a painting, set against a plain, light brown background. The artwork depicts two figures, positioned one above the other, rendered with red outlines and muted colors. The upper figure, larger and more prominent, is shown from the chest up, facing slightly to the right with its head tilted. It has a round face with wide-open eyes, a small nose, and an open mouth. A red dot is visible on its forehead. It wears a multi-layered headdress with a central ornament. A large, light gray halo with a blue inner ring encircles its head. The figure's right arm is raised, holding a long, slender, light-colored staff-like object that extends downwards towards the lower part of the fragment. The skin tone is light, with red accents on the neck and shoulders. Below and to the left of the upper figure, the head and upper shoulders of a second, smaller figure are visible. This figure faces slightly to the right with downcast eyes. It has a simple, rounded head with a red dot on its forehead and red lines defining its features. A halo, similar in style to the upper figure's but smaller, is behind its head, featuring a blue inner ring. The background around the figures is a mottled gray and blue area. The entire fragment shows signs of age, with cracks and areas where the paint has faded or chipped away.
