The image displays an indoor exhibition featuring weathered stone carvings, likely within a museum or historical site in Stari Bar, Montenegro. The setting includes rough stone walls in the background, suggesting an ancient structure. The main subjects are several grey, ancient-looking stone fragments placed on and around wooden display structures. On the left, two prominent rectangular stone carvings, possibly escutcheons or coats of arms, are laid flat. The upper carving features three distinctive, almost calligraphic symbols arranged vertically, alongside a field with diagonal stripes. The lower carving displays a geometric, stepped or brick-like pattern on one side and elaborate swirling motifs on the other. To the right, two smaller, irregular stone fragments are visible. The upper piece shows a textured pattern resembling interwoven straps or a basket, framed by decorative scrolls. The lower fragment features a pronounced shell or fan-like design, also accompanied by ornate scrollwork. All these carvings appear aged and worn. Informational plaques are present, identifying the artifacts. One plaque reads: "Stari grad Bar / Grbovi porodica Gradenigo i Trono / Kraj XV vijeka / Old Town Bar / Coats of arms of Gradenigo and Trono families / End of XV century." Another plaque states: "Stari grad Bar / Grb plemičke porodice / XV-XVI vijek / Old town Bar / Coat of arms of noble family / 15-16th century." These texts indicate the carvings are coats of arms belonging to noble families from the 15th to 16th centuries, originating from the Old Town Bar. Below the main wooden display, glimpses of other artifacts, including ceramic mugs or bowls and a dark, spherical object resembling a cannonball, can be seen. A framed image is partially visible on the back wall. The scene is static, focused on the display of historical objects.
