The scene depicts St. Nicholas and the three children whom he saved from death. Tradition has it that three boys were playing in a field during the harvest. They wandered into the city and were soon lost, so they stopped at a butcher's premises to ask for food and a place to sleep. The butcher murdered them and kept their remains salted in a barrel. Some time later, Saint Nicholas visited the premises and commanded the butcher to open the large salting tub where the bodies still lay. Saint Nicholas said “Rise up, children!” and thus he miraculously resurrected the boys. -
