This anonymous engraving, dating from 1538-1641, depicts three figures: Julius Caesar, Mercury, and a priest with a cornucopia. The figures are shown standing in a row, each on a separate base. Julius Caesar is depicted in Roman armor, holding a laurel wreath in his right hand, while Mercury is shown with wings on his helmet, holding a caduceus, a staff entwined with snakes, in his left hand. The priest on the right holds a cornucopia, a symbol of abundance, in his right hand. The engraving's intricate detail and realistic portrayal of the figures showcase the artistic skill of its anonymous creator.
