About this work
A seated woman in a white blouse and red drapery points to a sheet of calculations on a writing board labeled PYTHAGORAS, showing number rows and sums. Beside her stand an inkwell with a quill, stacked books, and a classical urn among ivy and a tree in a stone terrace setting. This Allegory of Arithmetic by Laurent de La Hyre, dated 1650, is in the Walters Art Museum.
