Kuivalainen, describing the panel at the west end of the north wall –
“A simple thin candelabrum divides a red side panel into two.
On the right, a youth (young half-naked Bacchus) is standing with his weight on his right foot and his outstretched arm above a panther; his lower body is covered with a greenish-grey cloak, the sleeve of which is on his left arm. The panther is painted in movement forwards and light tones, with only the fore part of the body visible; its back is behind the youth.”
