"Personificatie van voorzichtigheid" (Personification of Prudence), a 1580 engraving by the German artist Ludwig Frig (1550-1599), depicts the allegorical figure of Prudence holding a serpent, symbolizing wisdom and knowledge, and a mirror, representing self-reflection and awareness. This small print, measuring 120 mm high and 98 mm wide, exemplifies Frig's skillful use of line and detail to create a dynamic and expressive representation of this important virtue. The figure's flowing drapery and the intricate details of her surroundings further enhance the composition's visual impact.
