Description
Content (description)
The eagle with its wings spread lifts Ganymede, who looks up towards it. He wears a cap, a loin cloh and a cloak which billows out behind him, although he holds a corner of it in his left hand. His right hand is raised as if holding a jug, but this has not survived.
