content: Vertical rectangle. Design for bottle cooler, glasses, and tray. At the bottom, a base with a moulding and a dado on which is displayed eagles which are connected by festoons. The eagles support the spherical bottom of the tray, which has an arched railing. On it stands on a fluted pedestal a cooler similar to that depicted in 1938-88-659: curved legs with female masks on top rise from a base with a wave motif. They are held together by a band, and the bands are connected by another band and by vine festoons. The body has the shape of part of an egg. Arched railing on top. Two glasses flank the pedestal.
