| Commentary | Dipinto located on the eastern face of Pier A41, looking into Bay 30. The graffito is faded at its right end. I have not been able to interpret the iconography, considering that it is far from certain that the two long and thick lines so prominently drawn are indeed pertinent to the rest of the representation. In fact, they might very well constitute part of a second, and incomplete, dipinto. |
