This engraving by Hubert Quellinus, dated 1663, is a detailed design for a frieze, a decorative band found above a doorway. The frieze features two sections, each with a distinct theme: reward and punishment. The top section shows a hand holding a whip and chains, while the bottom section depicts an overflowing cornucopia, symbolic of bounty and abundance. The all-seeing eye, symbolizing divine justice, is featured above the top section, highlighting the overarching theme of divine retribution. Quellinus's intricate design, featuring a combination of floral elements and classical motifs, exemplifies the artistry of the 17th century.
