Description

The panel is composed of two identical pieces on which is depicted :
An architectural view gives access to an interior via a classical doorway. A green and white checkered pavement and two windows inscribed between Doric columns enrich this building topped by a loggia.
On the left hand side a peacock is standing on top of a circular tent framed by fruit trees.
The foreground depicts flower-beds with a fountain in its middle.

Hanging from the doorway keystone a circular perch hosts a large-beak bird.
