Solving the Sacred Wounds puzzle in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Once you reach the quest area while exploring the Underworld, head through the main door to find a mural of Jesus Christ, with five levers around his body. The levers are numbered between 1 and 4 in Roman numerals, which are represented as I being 1, II being 2, III being 3, and IV being 4.

To start, pour wine into the large dish in front of you. Now, you will have to put each lever in the correct position. Look around you to find two murals on either side of the main mural, and two rooms housing one mural each on either end of the main room. The fifth and final mural can be accessed via a small hallway in the left room.

Below are the different murals and their respective numerals. If you simply wish to know the numbers, they can be found below the five images.

Once done correctly, the levers will disappear and the wall will open up, revealing a path to proceed further. This also signifies the end of the quest.
