Fragment of a Double Capital: Mary and Martha at the Raising of Lazarus

Cleveland Museum of Art

Fragment of a double capital depicting Mary and Martha at the Raising of Lazarus by an unknown artist. The sculpture is a light-brown, stone fragment with a rough, weathered texture. Two women are carved into the stone, standing side by side. The woman on the left has her head covered and wears a long, draped garment with vertical folds; her body faces left, but she looks right, towards the other woman. The woman on the right also has a covered head and a long, draped garment; her body faces right, and she looks left, towards the other woman. The top of the fragment has an inscription. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
