The incised four-figure composition consists of two standing youths flanked in the foreground by two seated young men, who can be identified as the Dioskouroi, Castor and Polydeukes, owing to the Phrygian caps they wear. They are engaged in animated conversation, with the two standing figures looking on to each brother and seemingly listening in.
For an Etruscan mirror with a strikingly identical scene, cf. acc. no. H2162 in the Thorvaldsen Museum, Copenhagen.
