Engaged Capital with Human Figures and Foliage

Cleveland Museum of Art

The architectural stone carving depicts a foliage design with two human figures. The carving is made of light-colored stone and has a rough texture. It is shaped like a capital with a flat bottom and curved top. The bottom section features a carved design of three stylized plants with curved leaves. The top section contains two human figures carved in high relief on either side. The figure on the left appears to have a rounded face with both hands to the face. The figure on the right is naked, and appears to have curly hair. The head of a third figure is centered above the two human figures. The background of the image is dark gray, which helps to highlight the details of the carving.
