Hombre barbado bañándose en una tina sobre el fuego, con una paloma blanca encima y un ayudante arrodillado junto a la llama.

Eson rejuvenecido en una tina hirviente, elixir de la vida

Un hombre barbado se baña en una tina redonda de color azul sobre un fuego, mientras una paloma blanca revolotea sobre él. Un ayudante arrodillado, vestido de azul y rojo, atiende la llama junto a un matraz de vidrio, dentro de un salón arqueado de estilo renacentista con suelo de cuadros y columnas.
