Content (description)

On left, Paris with a drape round his thighs, sits on rocks holding a pedum. He rests his elbow on rock or a pillar and rests his head on his hand. A tree grows behind him on far left. Oenone stands in centre and points to a ship floating on the waves on right, a thyrsus (?) resting against its stern. A rock border runs up the right. Across the top is a rocky line, on which stands a town wall with a gateway on left, a colonnade on right and two bare trees far right.
