The image depicts a relief sculpture from the 11th century, probably originating from the Meuse Valley in modern-day Belgium or Germany. The artwork is made from ivory and measures approximately 10 1/2 inches by 4 9/16 inches (26.7 cm by 11.6 cm).

The relief portrays the biblical scene of the incredulity of Saint Thomas. In this depiction, the figure of Christ is prominently featured on the right, with a serene and compassionate expression. His right hand is lifted, guiding the doubting Saint Thomas, who is positioned on the left. Saint Thomas, bent over, is shown verifying Christ's resurrection by touching the wound on Christ's side using his finger. The design is detailed, illustrating the texture of their robes and the intricate carving of their faces.

Surrounding the central figures is a border of repeating ornate patterns, adding to the visual richness of the piece. The background within the border appears slightly recessed, emphasizing the three-dimensionality of the figures and creating depth in the composition. The ivory material has aged to a mellow, slightly warm tone, giving the sculpture a timeless and historic appearance.

This is an image of a finely detailed ivory carving. It features two figures within an arched niche; one is standing and appears to be an adult, while the other is kneeling or sitting at the standing figure's feet, possibly representing a child or a follower. The standing figure drapes a large, flowing cloak over both figures, encompassing the kneeling figure in a protective or comforting gesture. The craftsmanship is meticulous, capturing details in the drapery of the clothing and the expressions on the figures' faces.

The background of the niche and the border surrounding the scene are adorned with intricate leaf-like patterns, suggesting an ornate, possibly Gothic, style. The top of the arch contains carved text or symbols, but they are not entirely legible from this angle. The entire piece has an aged look, consistent with artifacts from the medieval period and is likely to be a religious artifact, considering the iconography used and the common use of ivory in religious art during that time.

This kind of carving might have been intended for private devotion or as a part of a larger altarpiece or religious object. Its small size suggests it was meant for personal use or for display in an intimate setting.
