The image is a photograph of an ancient relief carving. The relief depicts a procession of figures and animals arranged in horizontal registers. In the top register, a mythical creature resembling a lion or a bull with a mane, possibly a bull-lion or griffin, is shown pulling a chariot. Behind it, a line of standing figures, some with their arms raised, are depicted. The middle register shows a line of identically dressed figures in profile, each holding a spear or a staff. These figures are wearing short, fringed tunics and helmets or headdresses. The bottom register shows another procession of figures and animals. On the left, a winged creature with a human-like face and a lion's body is depicted. To its right, figures are shown with animals and chariots. The colors are muted, with shades of brown, yellow, and red prominent against a dark background. The carving appears to be made of stone or pottery. The text at the bottom of the image, "eros se hallan," is in Spanish. However, there is no information within the image itself that connects it to Santa Ana, Venezuela.
