About this work
In the clouds the personification Truth. In her hands a globe and a pen. Next to her two putti hold up a medallion with the title of the booklet. Other putti hold medallions of persons from world history. Father Time and the personification Faith among them. Winged Time hands a hat (symbol for fidelity) to Faith. In the background a battle.
