Description: | Six young muscular men all facing to the left and one female to the far right with an older bearded male figure. All figures are nude and hold bows in their left hands with their right hands pulled back. A cherub sleeps in the foreground to the left, huging a bow and with a quiver lying on the ground next to them. Two other cherubs blow in the middle ground to the right with arrows and a vessel lying on the ground in front of them. A sculpture of a male figure from chest up on a pillar is located to the left. An arrow pierces his stomach.
