Scylla and Minos, Round, lead plaque. In the middle Minos, the besieger, seated on his horse that jumped to the left, in front of the gate of Niseia, the city that fell into his hands through betrayal of the king's daughter Scylla. She stands on the tower and shows the enemy for whom she was ignited in love, the golden hair of her father, Nisus, from which he derived his power and that she stole him at night. In the foreground two sitting and two standing soldiers. On the second plan: three women on the left, and a military procession on the right. In the background the city on the water with ships., Hans Jamnitzer (attributed to), Neurenberg, 1569, founding, d 18.5 cm.
