Seated figure covering his face, two crouched nude figures in the foreground, and a standing figure holding a chain, all against fiery red flames.

A seated figure in a dark robe hides his face with one hand before a wall of red and orange flames. Two crouched, nude figures bow their heads in the foreground, while a third stands at right, bent forward and gripping a chain amid billowing fire.
