Behind him is a winged female figure flying towards him, with long hair, short fringed chiton, and a wreath in either hand. On the horse's neck is perched a water-bird, and in front is an eagle flying to left; between the horse's legs are three water-fowl of varying size, and in the exergue is a pattern of lotus-flowers.
