The engraving showcases a range of athletic events that were popular during that era. In the foreground, we witness an intense water jump competition, where athletes display their agility and strength as they leap over obstacles with precision. In the distance, a group of runners can be seen engaged in a thrilling one-mile race, pushing themselves to their limits for victory.
