The flesh parts are light brown; the garment is whitish. There are 

 outlines of relatively darker colors about some of the flesh parts and the 

 toga. Next on the right is a boy, turned slightly to left. He wears a 

 whitish tunic extending as far as the knees. The legs from the. knees 

 downward, as well as the feet, are very faint and perhaps not ancient. 

 To the lower right forearm, which hangs obliquely downward, a ribbon 

 is attached. It falls in two streamers with forked ends nearly to the 

 ground. In his left hand, which, together with the left arm, is scarcely 

 visible owing to repairs, the boy holds a dark brown platter up to the 

 level of his chin. On the platter there is a 'grayish substance of uncer- 

 tain character. The boy has short dark brown hair, in which there are 

 traces of a green wreath. The drooping eyelids indicate that his gaze 

 is fixed on the platter. The flesh is light brown with a faint pink tinge. 

 At the extreme right there are slight remains of a larger figure, doubtless 

 male, walking to left. The parts which are most easily distinguish- 

 able are the right side of the back of the calf of a leg and a foot, all in red- 

 dish brown. He seems to have white drapery about the middle. 



At the left of the altar stands a figure with wide hips and of stature 

 somewhat inferior to that of the man opposite. It is clad in a whitish 

 upper garment reaching, probably, from the top of the head to the middle 

 of the shin. From there to the feet there seems to be a yellowish under- 

 garment or tunic. The brown feet are turned to the right. It is not 

 certain whether they are shod. The right arm is completely covered 

 by the upper garment; the hand is indistinct. The left arm is bare from 

 above the elbow. On the wrist there is a bit of pink which probably 

 represents a metal bracelet. The hand is extended over the altar. The 

 head, which is partly turned to the left, is crowned with rather plentiful 

 dark brown hair. There are very faint traces of a green wreath. Eyes 

 and nose are now indistinct. The wide mouth is slightly open, showing 

 the teeth. The face is considerably lighter colored than that of the 

 man. Wide brown lines are used to indicate contours as well as the 

 folds of the upper garment. The figure doubtless represents a woman. 

 Close to her on the left is a boy wearing a tunic which reaches about to 

 the knees. The legs below the garment are sketchily drawn and poorly 

 preserved, and the feet are scarcely distinguishable. From the lower 

 right forearm hang ribbons. The left arm supports a large dark brown 

 platter on which there are some objects of uncertain character, chiefly 

 of brownish color. About the boy's dark brown hair there are traces 

 of a green wreath. His face, which is almost in profile, is similar in 

 color to that of the woman. Eye, nose and mouth are still visible. 

 At the left of this figure there follows, after a certain interspace, a youth 

 who is playing the double flutes. He is clad in a single whitish garment
