DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: White earthenware, moulded, covered with very slightly blue tinted lead glaze and painted green, yellow, yellow-ochre, flesh-pink, pale pink, several shades of brown, and black enamels. The figures are supported on a square straight-sided base which is concave underneath, and has two ventilation holes on the left near the back.  Ganymede stands beside a tall tree stump on the viewer's left. The eagle stands in front ot it, and looks up towards him. He holds out a drinking bowl in his left hand and rests his right arm on the top of the tree stump. He has brown hair, and wears a greenish-yellow Phrygian cap, a short pink tunic and a short pink cloak with a yellow lining, the end of which is draped over the top of the tree stump. The eagle is painted naturalistically in shades of brown with a black beak and yellow legs; the tree stump is dappled in green and brown, and the base is marbled in shades of yellow ochre and brown with darker brown veining.
