A satyr carries a tray on which a putto with grapevines and a woman with a thyrsus and a chalice stand. Above them, three putti fly with a jug; they pour something into the chalice of the woman. Around the whole, arabesques, garlands, baskets of fruit, snakes, putti, birds, and at the bottom, a vase.
