Capricorn (section of a zodiac frieze)
These signs of the Zodiac have been cut from a horizontal band of relief that once belonged to an object of considerable size and importance. Capricorn should follow Sagittarius but Renaissance artists occasionally arranged the signs in reverse order. The punched backgrounds are typically Venetian.
