About this work
Long, rounded at the top, lead plaque with an allegorical female figure with an attribute representing Prudence. Before a tree-rich river landscape stands a woman with a Janus head, with a girdled robe, which is held up with the left arm, turned to the left and looking at the two-headed snake in her right hand.
