Allegorische voorstelling van Maria de' Medici en de relatie tot haar zoon Lodewijk XIII, 1637
Cornelis Galle (I)


An allegorical figure, adorned with a city crown and flanked by two lions, sits before a balustrade. On either side, symbolic representations of peace (a dove) and battle (an eagle clutching a lightning bolt) are depicted. To the left, Father Time reveals the Truth, while on the right, he conceals Envy. This artwork serves as the title page for a book detailing the conflict between Maria de' Medici and her son Louis XIII.
