The actual theme of the piece is the inner unity of the two figures. The image expresses the loving submission of the disciple to the teacher and God’s love of mankind. The artist conveys this spiritual dimension very convincingly. The two figures form a a single entity. No space is left between them, and the arm and hand movements seemingly cause them to merge. The subtle drapery is conceived in such a way that the robes virtually flow into one another, further heightening the unity.
