About this work
Allegory on the aid provided to Catholic poor in Amsterdam, 5 December 1787. Mildness sits on a throne with the Amsterdam coat of arms and a horn of plenty in her arms, in front of her a grateful Catholic man, woman and child; two putti look at a sheet with a representation of the Roman Poor Office on the Keizersgracht 384. In the sky the All-Seeing Eye.
