Summary
Cast of two women walking in a temple procession, one playing a tambourine, the other, who holds the forepaws of a goat in her right hand and a basket of fruit in her left. It is based on a terracotta tile series from the first century AD in the Campana collection in the Louvre (S 895), which tells the story of the seasons.
Provenance
Possibly acquired by Charles, 1st Earl of Whitworth (1752-1825).
