About this work
Charity stands in the center, a child on her arm and one by her skirts. Beside her sits a praying man. In the background Noli mi tangere; to the right Christ as the Good Shepherd. To the rear right the Prodigal Son among the swine. Top left a soul being taken up into heaven. Fourth print from a series of Allegories on the Virtues and Faith.
