This circular bronze plate depicts the scene of the rape of Europa. This piece uses the bas relief style which creates three-dimensional raised figures against a flat background. In the center is a female figure draped along the neck and back of a horned bull. She grasps onto a horn with her left arm while her right arm is raised above her head as she looks backward. She is muscular and nude except for a cloth around her groin, the end of which blows in the wind. Her right leg is extended toward the rear of the bull as she balances on her bent left leg. The bull is seen in profile mid-stride with its tail arched behind it. There are fish and sea serpents below. Encircling this scene is a wave-like arched border around the outer lip of this plate. The lower rim is signed and dated by the artist.
