About this work

At the temple gate, a beggar asks Peter and John for alms. Peter has no money, but heals him in the name of Christ and helps the man to his feet. A group of men watches. On the right, two men point to the scene. In the temple and on a bridge in the background, men and women. At the bottom center, the biblical story from Acts 3:4-31 in Latin.
