DescriptionA man with long hair, a beard, and a mustache is seated at the right. He is barefoot and wears flowing robes. Three small boys wearing tunics gather around him. One is kneeling with outstretched hands. Another stands leaning on the man's right knee. Another leans on his left knee. The man's left hand is on his back. The man stretches out his right hand towards a fourth child who approaches from the left. His hands cover his eyes, and he appears to be crying. The floor or pavement appears to be composed of large blocks of dressed stone.
