Information
the cap and flounce decorated with a mythological scene, the skirt decorated with a blue background band and edged in yellow with a garland motif. Marked, numbered and titled "Glauco e Scilla" in blue on the back.
Glaucus, a fisherman from Boeotia who was later transformed into a god, had a reciprocated love for the nymph Scylla. To get her as a wife, he naively turned to the sorceress Circe who, being in love with him and overcome by jealousy, transformed him into a triton. The dish shows the moment of Scylla's refusal after discovering the new appearance of her beloved
