Description

Across the bottom is an effusive dedication to Eminentissimo Cardinali Anthonio Barberino, set around the Barberini crest which is flanked by two trumpetting Victories. The scene centres on suckling pigs being sacrificed in a cauldron. Swags across the top hang between the columns and unite the relief.
