The scene on this dish was derived from Marcantonio Raimondi's Quos Ego engraving, illustrated opposite. The central scene on the engraving shows Neptune calming the tempest which had been raised by Aeolus against Aeneas's fleet.

For a dish possibly by the same hand (also with decoration extending over the blue line border onto the ochre rim), see Johanna Lessmann, Italienische Majolika Herzog Anton Ulrich-Museum, Brunswick, Catalogue (Brunswick, 1979), p. 361, no. 512.
