In Stucco gearbeitetes hochformatiges Relief mit seltener Darstellung eines zentralen Panthers, welcher von links stehenden Personen angebetet wird. Der Panther ist Symbol für den auferstandenen Christus, weil der Panther – so eine antike Meinung – nachdem er sich gesättigt hat, drei Tage schläft, um dann aufzustehen und seine Stimme zu erheben, wobei laut Physiologusbericht sein Mund Wohlgeruch verströmt, der die anderen Tiere anlockt und versammelt. Eben dies, das Herbeiströmen der Tiere, ist hier auf der rechten Seite zu erkennen. Minimal best.
