About this work

Moses stands with raised staff to the right of the waterfall, which pours from the rock. Behind him a man bending forward drinking, to the left a kneeling woman catching one of the two rays in a bowl. Behind Moses three men and several tents; behind the kneeling woman a standing woman carrying a jug on her shoulder. The bottom of the relief is beveled into an elongated panel.
