Quarrel of Achilles and Agamemnon

A small oil painting on wood shows a seated bearded man in a red-brown cloak gesturing from a raised platform, beside a shield and helmet. Standing before him, a nude youth grips a sword as an armored woman in blue restrains him from behind, while an old man in red robes steps between them amid a crowd under dark drapery.
