About the sculpture
This white wax relief depict Moses standing on the left pointing upwards to the serpent coiled round a tree trunk behind him. In the foreground to the right there are groups of men and women pointing towards the serpent; one man is supporting a recumbent man, another carrying a child. In the wooded landscape background are other groups of figures.
The relief is unusually large and the very low suggesting a connection with metal work.
