National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a mythological ship. The drawing depicts a fantastical vessel adorned with ornate sculptures and decorations. A figure labeled "Mercurio" is shown standing at the prow of the ship with a winged helmet and caduceus. Another figure, "Anfone," is depicted at the stern in armor holding a scepter. The ship is populated with figures in classical attire, holding shields and banners. Smoke or mist surrounds the ship as it glides over the water, with distant landscapes visible in the background.
