The image shows an older bearded man carrying a child on his shoulder and walking through water. The man is holding a staff in his right hand and looking up at the child. The child has short hair and is holding onto the man's head with both hands. The man's clothing is draped in a robe, and the child wears a simple garment. In the background, there are trees, hills, and a small structure to the right. The water creates ripples around the man's legs, and there is a stone with an inscription in the water. The sky appears to be glowing, particularly around the child's head.
