In dieser aus zwei mythologischen Figuren bestehenden Darstellung ist rechts Athene in Rüstung und Helm darstellt; hinter ihr ragt der Kopf eines Pferdes hervor. Sie schaut auf den ihr gegenübersitzenden, bärtigen alten Mann und hat ihre linke Hand erhoben. Dieser hält mit festem Griff ein kleines Kind in seinem Arm, ihm zu Füßen stehen zwei weitere Kinder. Es handelt sich wohl dabei um Saturn, der nach der römischen Mythologie seine eigenen Kinder gefressen haben soll. In diesem Bild wird er eindringlich von Athene dazu ermahnt, von seinem Vorhaben abzulassen. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Wiedergabe der Bewegtheit der Dargestellten. (†) (13306041) (10)
