Description
On far left stands a tower with arched openings, and at its foot are a bird and a lizard and a crocodile. A cow grazes by it. In the centre, partly in front of the cow, a nude youth (Apollo?) sits on rock covered with drapery resting his lyre on his leg. He looks left, to where, beyond a tree trunk round which a snake entwines, a Panesse sits on a rock. A rabbit emerges from a hole at the bottom of the rock. A dog sits to left at the foot of the tree and turns its head to right.
