The image shows a stone relief depicting a scene with three figures that appear to be carved in a style representative of ancient or classical art. From left to right:

  1. The first figure is wearing a helmet and appears to be a warrior or soldier. He's holding a large shield, covering his left side, and seems to be in a posture suggesting readiness or defense.

  2. The second figure is positioned in the center. This individual is also wearing a helmet and seems to be carrying a weapon or tool, possibly a hammer or mallet, raised above his head as if ready to strike or in the process of working. The figure's stance is dynamic and conveys movement.

  3. The third figure is sitting and might represent a woman based on the stylization of the features and the presence of what could be interpreted as long hair or a headdress. She is situated beside an object that resembles an anvil, which could suggest that this scene involves some form of labor or craftsmanship. Her posture is more relaxed compared to the others and she seems to be passively observing or waiting.

The overall composition of the relief, with partially preserved details and the worn surface, suggests that it could be an ancient artifact or a reproduction designed to mimic an antiquated style. The stone's texture is rough and uneven, indicating either age or the manner of its creation.

The subject matter appears to be of a mythological or historical narrative, possibly depicting a scene of preparation for battle or a depiction of blacksmithing, which in many ancient cultures has mythological significance. The rough-hewn nature of the relief gives it a strong sense of history and archeological interest.
