This 1728 drawing by Danish artist Marcus Tuscher depicts a scene of allegory. The central figure, a winged and armored angel, represents Truth, victoriously defeating the figures of Envy and Lies below. The composition is framed by putti and decorative elements, showcasing the Baroque aesthetic popular during the artist's time. This elaborate design, likely intended as a sketch for a larger work, exemplifies Tuscher's skill in blending classical mythology with decorative flourish. The artwork, titled "Allegory: The Victory of Truth Over Envy and Lies," is part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
