Tazza (drinking cup) with a scene of Circe and the Companions of Odysseus — História e Análise

Esta é uma cena da Odisseia, a épica história da perigosa jornada de volta feita por Ulisses e seus companheiros após a queda de Troia. Os homens chegaram à ilha onde vivia a feiticeira Circe. Ela lhes deu uma poção mágica que os transformou em porcos (um porco sai à esquerda).

Avisado a tempo, Ulisses conseguiu quebrar o feitiço.
