Description

In the house in the center, open so we can see inside, Anchises arms raised refuses to leave.
Outside on the right, Aeneas takes his father on his shoulders. Little Ascagne, from behind, stands before him. Creuse, in blue from behind in the right foreground, follows them from afar, but will die before she can leave the city.
