About this piece
Two women hold a wreath, standing on either side of an image of a hand grasping a bunch of grapes by the stem. In Cats' symbolism, this represents chastity. To the bottom left is a turtle, symbolizing modesty, and to the right is a chameleon, symbolizing shame. Above them, a putto holds a banner.
