About this work
Venus and Amor ride in a triumphal chariot in the sky, drawn by two birds. On the chariot are the zodiac signs Taurus and Libra. The people on earth devote themselves to a pleasant life and eroticism. In a landscape, people are playing, bathing, making music, walking in pairs and eating around a set table. At the top, a four-line verse in German.
