About this work

In front of a house built in the Ionic order, a family sits at a table on the terrace. The woman is breastfeeding her baby. Her daughter next to her is doing needlework. Three boys listen attentively to their father. A book lies on the table in front of him. A young couple stands nearby. A man with measuring instruments is coming up the stairs. In the background, people are being executed in various ways. In the margin, a four-line text in two columns in Latin. The print is part of an album.
