On the right face (southern) is a representation of Notos emptying an urn.  Below it, in the lower right portion of the image the top of the external semicircular reservoir, used in connection with the water clock inside, is visible.

In the center of the image (southwestern face) is Lips represented as a youth pushing the stern of a ship — evidently promising good sailing winds.

 

On the left (west, but barely visible) is Zephyr represented a youth carrying flowers.
