DESCRIPTION
Leto, Artemis and Apollo, stand beside a temple--probably the shrine of Delphi or Delos. Leto wears a crown and veil, and holds a wreath of laurel in her hands. Artemis carries an oinochoe jug and tortoise-shell lyre. Apollo wears a wreath of laurel, and holds a cup (phiale), bow and laurel-branch.
