Description
Three archaistic divinities move to left. On left Diana, draped and wearing a diadem, has her bow and quiver slung over her shoulder and holds before her in her right hand a large burning torch. In the centre is Mercury, bearded and draped and holding out his caduceus. A rectangular altar topped with flames separates Diana and Mercury. On right comes Apollo, nude but with a drape hanging from his arms and with a laurel wreath on his head. He carries a bow and holds out an arrow before him.
