Español: Cacerías de Cupido

Un joven alado, que el registro identifica como Cupido, se encuentra en el centro de una composición dorada, sujetando un arco mientras doncellas con vestidos dorados se agachan y arrodillan a su alrededor. El oro y el temple brillan sobre un fondo de follaje, con ramas frondosas que se elevan tras las figuras.
