Herakles, wreathed and bearded, mounted on a mule moving right. The head and forepaws of the lion-skin appear on the mule' s withers, as if the skin served for a saddle cloth. A skin also is worn by the figure, fastened on his left shoulder. He is turned slightly towards the front, his right arm (missing) upraised in the act of beating his mount with his club, the end of which remains on the mule' s hind-quarters. Traces of white.
