Description de l’image
This is an image of a tree with a group of robed figures gathered around it. Above the tree, there are two figures sitting on clouds, with a dove emerging from a light aura. The scene includes small flame-like figures around the radiating beams of light. The tree visually connects the earthly gathering with the divine scene above. The composition is balanced and the line work is delicate, emphasizing the connection between the earthly and celestial realms.
