Don Bosco is portrayed with the young people as his specific charisma.

Two angels holding roses and lilies close the main bas-relief on the sides. Further back, just under the Roman columns, there are two other bas-reliefs representing Don Bosco among the young people and among the Indians of Patagonia. On the two sides of the table are the coats of arms of Popes Pius IX and Leo XIII, great supporters of Don Bosco in this work of the Sacred Heart. (Kremer, 2025) Photo from Rome, Italy, 2025.
