Cornelis Galle I after Sir Peter Paul Rubens

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a group of mythological figures surrounding a central ancient text. The image exhibits a highly detailed and intricate black and white depiction of various mythical and classical figures. The figures are arranged in a circular composition around a central standing figure. Some figures hold weapons, others musical instruments, and one appears to have a scythe and hourglass.
