At either extremity of this panel stands a figure censing the corpse with a circular thurible. The border of each compartment is formed by a double invected pattern of gold and enamel. The ridge-piece is of copper perforated with eight keyhole ornaments. The back of the shrine is also divided into two compartments, and is decorated with quatrefoils.
This and the cupola on the building behind the Virgin suggest a Byzantine model, as well as the incorrect monogram, which is ϒΘ. The rest of the arch is filled with censing angels. The jambs bear four-feet figures of Adam and Eve outside the orders of the arch, holding fig-leaves in the same manner as the figures at Sebenico, which they much resemble.
