Trojans pulling the wooden horse into the city. Two rows of bizarrely dressed people and others wearing dog masks pull the horse with ropes. Laocoon stands at the base of the statue of Minerva, and Cassandra kneels before it. Copperplate engraving by Tommaso Piroli from his Antiquities of Herculaneum (Antichita di Ercolano), Rome, 1790.
