Dario Ghio
Silver dish Malta, first half of the 17th century Ø 34 cm Weight 692 gr. Round in shape and bordered with leaves. The central medallion is decorated with a mythological scene depicting the myth of Apollo and Marsyas, a satyr who dared to challenge the god of music and was flayed alive by the latter, an episode that is best known through Ovid's account in Book VI of the Metamorphoses (vv. 382-400). The border consists of six alternating scenes with grotesque masks, which probably tell the story of the battle of Jerusalem lost by the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre in the Holy Land.
