The image displays a bronze circular sculpture with detailed relief work. The sculpture features a group of figures engaged in a ceremonial act, with two prominent figures standing beside a tall column with a fire burning at the top. Above them is a canopy-like structure supported by three columns, inside which a small figure stands. Additional figures in draped garments, typical of ancient attire, are in the background. The relief showcases the fluidity of the garments and the poised gestures of the figures. The composition is encircled by a beaded border along the edge of the sculpture, with a small hole at the top for mounting or display.
