拍品专文

The scene depicts men carrying large transport amphorae over their shoulders, possibly unloading the cargo of a ship inside a warehouse. Scenes from daily life are often depicted on sarcophagi of the period, such as a very similar example from Portus showing the unloading of a ship, cf. C. Pavolini, La Vita Quotidiana a Ostia, Bari, 1986, pl. 26.
