Not on view

Design for a horizontal panel with a meandering rinceau. Between the rinceaux there are three hybrid young male figures whose lower bodies morph into the acanthus scrolls. One figure on the left wears a wreath on his head and carries part of the scroll over his shoulder. Right of the center, the two other figures seem to interact with each other. The one on the left has wings on his back. The one on the right supports part of the scroll with his shoulder.
