About this work

Jolinde comes with her retinue suddenly to dine at Actaeon's. He does not really have anything at home and out of embarrassment prepares his falcon. The food tastes strange and eventually Actaeon confesses to Jolinde what is really on the table. Out of pity Jolinde marries him. Page from a book with text on recto and verso.
