The scene depicts the royal chariot awaiting its occupants at the majestic palace gate in Nineveh. This enchanting image is a reproduction of a 19th-century engraving by Nikolaus Knilling, based on an original work by Heinrich Leutemann. The chariot itself is a symbol of power and authority, beautifully adorned with intricate carvings and embellishments. Its regal presence commands attention as it stands poised for departure. One can only imagine the anticipation that must have filled the air as kings and queens prepared to embark on their journeys through this magnificent gateway.
