ROOM I. No. 6. A bas-relief, representing a group of 
j^NTiQ^TiEs, Silenus and Cupid, before whom is a female Bac¬ 
chante dancing, and playing on the tarnbourin. 
No. 7. Ditto, representing an engagement be¬ 
tween one of the x4rimaspi and a Griffin; on the 
left of the combatants is the bust of an athletic 
figure, armed with a battle-axe. 
No. 8. Ditto, intended by the artist as a com¬ 
panion to No. 7, and to be joined to it in the man¬ 
ner in which it is here seen. ' The subject in both 
pieces is precisely the same: the bust, however, in 
this piece is placed on the right of the combatants, 
and is armed with a sword and shield. 
No. 9. Repetition of No. 6. 
No. 10. A bas-relief, representing a head of 
• Medusa, on each side of which is an eagle in the 
act of seizing, with its talons, one of the snakes 
which are entwined in the locks of her hair. 
No. 11. Ditto, representing a couple of chi¬ 
meras lapping water out of vessels held to them 
by two youths who are attired in Phrygian dresses, 
and are each kneeling on one knee. 
No. 12. Ditto, representing a female, who seems 
to be overwhelmed, v/ith affiiction. She is seated, 
and is resting her head upon her right arm, while 
her attendants, from the concern which is visible in 
their countenances, appear to participate in her sor¬ 
row. This bas-relief probably represents Penelope 
dejected at the departure of Ulysses. 
No. 13.
