Two vertical rectangular panels with arched tops feature bronze relief sculptures against warm, patinated brown surfaces. The left panel depicts a central woman in a flowing gown with arms raised, grasping a small branch. The right panel displays a long trumpet resting against a vertical palm frond and leafy branches, positioned above a blank, recessed rectangular bar. Both panels utilize delicate raised details to define the classical figures and symbolic foliage within the composition.
