Image description

Whole artwork view. An agathodemon snake, protector genius of the hearth, twists around a yellow marble altar on a squared pink basement, where are placed fruits and eggs in its honour; on the left, approaches little Harpocrates, bare but a crown around his head and a little branch in his right hand; the god put his finger to his lips, in order to suggest silence; from Casa del Colonnato Tuscanico, Ercolano.
