23. Ala (d), parete N: il quadro con Frisso ed Elle (0,50 x 0,47) che è documentato da questo disegno di G. Discanno e dalle descrizioni dell'epoca dello scavo, testimonierebbe la versione del mito secondo la quale Posidone, innamorato della fanciulla, la fece strappare dall'ariete dai suoi Tritoni. Lo Knapp (cit. in bibl.) distingueva anche una Tritonessa ed un Tritone nelle due figure vicine alla giovanotta già sommersa dall'acqua, che solleva un braccio in un'ultima disperata ricerca di aiuto, mentre Frisso, seduto sull'ariete, sembrerebbe reggersi ad esso quasi indifferente al dramma che si svolge così vicino a lui.

23. Wing (d), N wall: the painting with Frisso and Elle (0.50 x 0.47) which is documented by this drawing by G. Discanno and by the descriptions of the excavation period, would testify to the version of the myth according to which Poseidon, in love with the girl, had her snatched from the ram by his Tritons. Knapp (cited in the bibl.) also distinguished a Tritoness and a Triton in the two figures close to the young girl already submerged in water, who raises her arm in a last desperate search for help, while Phryxus, seated on the ram, would seem stand by it almost indifferent to the drama unfolding so close to it.
