About this work

Spiral-shaped board game with the head of the snake, crowned, in the upper left, and its tail in the upper right. Round squares numbered from 1 to 63 run along the entire snake, some with depictions of putti. In the center, an oval with an image of a dancing peasant couple, with a music-playing putto between them. Rules of play in two columns in the lower margin.
