The hexagonal sides of this box each show the head of a light-skinned, sorrowful-looking figure surrounded by botanical details. One figure is a woman with curly hair. The other is a man with a blue helmet. Each rectangular side of the box shows a scene, including a skeleton standing next to a human torso, a seated woman with exposed décolleté being touched on the chest by a standing man, a woman holding a basket of leaves on her head, a nude woman waving fabric in the wind, a couple standing close together, and a nude child riding a white horse.
