Jim,

Welcome back.  So one's square and the other's not, eh ?
I like the way the table of votives, with the kneeling
woman and the statue form a cross, which is lengthened
at the bottom by the reflection of the woman's figure
on the floor tiles.

The other one is a more classic Shulman, among the best,
even without the uplift.

Cheers,
