Content (description)

The panel, framed with a plain moulding, is decorated in relief with floral arabesques which rise from a floral mask bottom centre. Putti stand in the corners bottom left and right. In the top corners the arabesques terminate in cornucopiae of fruit and corn, which birds peck from below. Snakes twine among the arabesques beneath the birds. In the centre resting on foliage over the mask is a tablet, strung by fillets from the head of a putto, which is set directly on a pair of outstpread wings.
