Panel

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white image of a panel by an unknown artist. The panel depicts a scene with multiple figures, all wearing robes, standing on clouds. The figures are arranged in a group, some standing on the left, some on the right and some in the middle. A large flame is in the center, with a figure inside. The background of the panel features swirling cloud patterns. A white circular object is in the bottom left corner, attached to a thin white line. The panel fills the image.
