This pair of small-scale reliefs, likely from a 4th-century sarcophagus, depict two biblical scenes: Lazarus being raised from the dead at the fig tree and Christ and Peter with the rooster. The reliefs were likely created for a Christian tomb, showcasing the importance of these stories within early Christian belief. The anonymous artist used a shallow relief style, common in the period, giving a subtle depth to the figures. These works are notable for their early date and provide insight into the visual language of early Christian art.
