About this work
The female personification of Envy (Invidia), chewing on a heart. In the background, a landscape with a storm raging and a boat sinking. The image is framed by a border with a Latin inscription set within a richly decorated cartouche. Fourth print from a series of eight depicting the cycle of human action.
