Description
Content (description)
To left an altar, behind which stands a woman; with her left hand she touches a tree, round which is twined a serpent: a pedum and an oscillum hang from it: then come three women, one with cymbals, another with tambourine: to right a youth with amphora and thyrsus, and in right background another running away.
