Vignette with Minerva and Amor

Minerva sits as patron of science on a cloud and shows an open book. She has overcome death, which lies at her feet in the form of a skeleton. Next to her sits Amor with a circular snake that takes its tail into its mouth: a symbol of eternity. On the left in the background putti printing books. The depiction is framed in an ornamental border with, among other things, cornucopias with books. In the middle below the motto: Vivitur Ingenio, cetera mortis erunt.
