Socrates sits, right hand pointing up, left hand
holding the poison
cup. Crouching On the left is phaedo, Standing right behind
Socrates looking downwards is crito.
Socrates represents truth, uncontrolled and pure. Crito
represents acknowledgment of truth, but with
skepticism. Phaedo represents the believers of truth and bows to
it.
