Description

Front side. The carved surface presents a family composition of five figures. The first figure crosses his arms on the chest while simultaneously playing the flute. The fourth figure extends his arms outward, which are held by the third and fifth figures. In the upper zone are carved simple, linear intercessory crosses. The scene is free of additional details, and the composition develops in a horizontal direction. The figures are rendered schematically, with highly conventional means of expression.

Back side. Under three monumental arches are carved cross motifs. The entire surface is framed with a meander ornament band.

Lateral sides. On both lateral planes, cross motifs are depicted beneath arches.

Upper side. Without ornamentation.
