Black and white image of a room with people. The room has stone block walls and vaulted ceiling with ribbed arches. A large archway spans the top of the image. To the left is a column. The room has a tiled floor. There are 13 people in long robes; some sitting and some standing. In the center on a raised platform are 4 people. The child in the center sits on a throne-like chair; he wears a dark cloak. The child holds a scroll in his left hand. The people around the child gesture. The people on the floor write in books or look at the child.
