καὶ ἐπείργασται τῇ ἀσπίδι τῶν Ἀθήνῃσι μίμημα ἐπὶ τῇ ἀσπίδι τῆς καλουμένης ὑπὸ Ἀθηναίων Παρθένου.
The sentence coordinates with καί; ἐπείργασται is a perfect middle/passive verb with dative τῇ ἀσπίδι as the surface/location complement, while μίμημα is its nominative subject. The second ἐπὶ phrase specifies the model: a likeness on the shield of the one called Παρθένος by the Athenians; Ἀθήνῃσι is an archaic/dialectal dative plural form, here functioning possessively with τῶν.
