An elaborate historical monumental epitaph and doorway are depicted, located within the Archiginnasio Palace in Bologna, Italy. The upper portion of the image features a large, dark rectangular plaque with a light-colored Latin inscription. The inscription begins "D. O. M. STEPHANO DE BALLIS NOB BONONIENSI IVD." This plaque is integrated into an ornate sculptural ensemble made of dark material, possibly dark wood or stone. Above the plaque, a central helmeted escutcheon displaying a coat of arms with three fleur-de-lis motifs is visible. Further above, at the top center, a figure on a cross is discernible, flanked by robed or armored standing figures and smaller cherubic figures. To the right of the main plaque, a sculptural element includes a shield bearing a red cross on a white field and the inscribed word "LIBERTAS." Below this monument, a substantial light-colored stone lintel is visible. Carved into this lintel are the dark capital letters of the Latin phrase "PIVS IIII PONT. MAX." Directly beneath the lintel, a recessed doorway frame is present, housing the upper sections of two dark, paneled wooden doors, indicating an entrance. No individuals are present in the scene. The overall lighting suggests an indoor setting.
