Six joined fragments of a dish. Cream earthenware, tin-glazed on both sides. Painted in blue, green, yellow, and orange.
Irregularly shaped, with part of the concave, curved side and edge of a dish of coppa type.
Part of the lower part of the face of a bearded man in profile to left, against a blue background. In front of him on a scroll passing over his head, is inscribed 'IPO' in blue (probably for IPPOLITO). The glaze on the reverse is crazed and much of it is missing, so that the cream fabric is visible.
