- The moulded central frame projects from a panel with a lozenge ornamentation incised in gesso. It is framed by an aediculum of a kind, the base of which is formed by leaf scrolls which are connected by a hanging palmette. Laterally are curved and foliated pilaster strips. Two foliated volutes form a pediment on top from which lambrequins hang. A palmette stands on top.
