Description
Content (description)
Nude winged Cupid and bearded Pan face one another. Both have their fists clenched, although Pan holds one of his behind his back, which suggests that they might be playing a game rather than fighting. A rudder in the background between them, the emblem of Fortuna, perhaps supports this interpretation.
