In the upper zone stood the Lares in the usual attire and position, between them was the Genius.
In the lower zone were two serpents confronted at an altar furnished with two eggs.
In the background were plants.
Below the serpents, there were roughly sketched drawings of a ham, a hog’s head, sausages, and other foods.
