## Commentary

Directly below is the tomb chamber whose side curtains are being drawn by two acolytes to reveal the recumbent effigy. This dynamic duo - one shown from the front almost in a dancing pose and the other from the back in typical Italian fashion to balance and enliven the composition - is the most novel feature, yet they descend from ancient models. The detail shows the left acolyte.
