This gray stone capital’s front scene shows a robed figure on the left with a halo around their head. Tips of wings protrude from behind their head. They face an open-mouthed, bearded figure on the right who stretches a long object above a tall, rectangular object on the ground. On the capital’s left side, two figures, one with a halo, huddle beneath an arched doorway. On the right face, a skeleton-like figure stands on a stone tower above a figure holding a rope. To the right, a man works on a roof.
