This canvas depicts the encounter between Father Roelas and the Five Knights, identified as the Holy Martyrs Acisclus, Zoilo, Faustus, Januarius, and Marcial. The work highlights the greeting of the Knight, hat in hand, to which Roelas responds. The other young men converse among themselves, saying "what a great mountain this was around here, when they captured me." The painting offers a magnificent view of Cordoba from an unusual perspective, beyond the walls of Marrubial.
