EDR030788

The inscription gives the name of a business well represented by the actual four sisters: one sitting as administrator of the business and the junger three in the pose of the Gratiae. This stone has been interpreted as the sign set up just out of the actual premises of the business but there are doubts about the actual role of the sitting lady. The connection to the context of this inscription and the relation between text, image and the clients passing by is clear.
