About this work

An engraved allegorical figure of Geometria, labeled at the top, sits beside a globe marked with gridded lines and holds a pair of compasses to its surface. Beneath her, a frog and a serpent rest near scattered instruments, and a classical colonnade with ruined arches appears behind her. The print, titled Geometria from The Seven Liberal Arts and attributed to Maerten de Vos, carries a Latin verse inscription along its lower margin.
