Two grayscale photos of two tall rectangular stone slabs, one with a snake coiled around a hanging pot sculpted onto it, and the other a tree next to floating objects. Two grayscale images of two lean rectangular stone slabs. Sculpted upon both is a gesturing standing man, beneath whom sits a partial lion-like animal and above whom is a garland.
