About this work
A cart drawn by two goats and driven by a satyr rides along a road strewn with horns. In the cart, a lady and gentleman hold each other's hands. In front of them, a man and woman with the horn as a symbol of the deceived husband. The woman in front looks back at the man beside the cart. On the left, another man tries to stop the cart. In the background, another cart drawn by two goats. In the distance, several ships, a city view (Calis), and a hospital named Sint Job. The print is part of an album.
