Jason Sowing the Dragon's Teeth; Artist Unknown, Italy or France

Title
Jason Sowing the Dragon's Teeth
Artist
Artist Unknown, Italy or France
Physical Description
A group of armed men struggles in a landscape while a helmeted female figure hovers on a cloud above them and points to a distant city that lies across an expanse of water. A man at the left with a green cuirass and cloth knotted about his waist and neck stands apart from the combatants and looks up toward the gesturing woman. Behind him appears a row of sword-wielding men locked in combat, with several casualties lying at their feet. On a hillock in the background a pair of oxen, an orange-gold colored sheep, and a winged dragon may be discerned.
