These images express Christian hopes of salvation. Here a beardless man dressed in a toga and the inscription “Live” are framed by miracle scenes. Beginning at the top and moving clockwise, these are Christ saving the three Hebrews in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3), Christ healing the paralytic (Matthew 9:1-8), Tobias with the fish that the archangel Raphael advises him will help restore his fathers sight (Tobit 6), and Christ turning water into wine at Cana (John 2:3-10)..
