Temperantia, rugfiguur van een naakte vrouw met schenkkan

anoniem, c. 1600 - c. 1625

Temperance and Justice. Ivory. Southern Germany, c. 1600-1650. The figure of Temperance was taken from an engraving by Hendrick Goltzius (1558-1617). Justice is based on her: although reversed, the contour is virtually identical. Probably the figures were originally applied to a cabinet. Justice: gift of J. Holstein, 1994.
