Éson rejuvenescido em tina fervente, elixir da vida

Um homem barbudo banha-se em uma tina redonda de cor azulada sobre um fogo, enquanto uma pomba branca paira acima dele. Um auxiliar ajoelhado, vestido de azul e vermelho, cuida da chama ao lado de um frasco de vidro, dentro de um salão em arcos de estilo renascentista com piso xadrez e colunas.
