520 |a At top right, Aesculapius rides in a golden chariot pulled by two centaurs. He holds his rod and cup, and above him a bare-breasted angel showers him with flowers. A Greek temple sits among clouds at top left. To the right of the chariot, an archer takes aim at a dragon in the lower left which has already been pierced through the neck and emits a blaze of fire.
