Simon van de Passe's 1617 engraving *Flora met een cornucopia onder een boom* depicts the Roman goddess Flora, depicted as a young woman, holding a cornucopia filled with flowers. The cornucopia, a symbol of abundance, spills over with blossoms, representing the bounty of nature. The goddess sits beneath a tree, in a landscape setting, emphasizing the connection between human and natural beauty. This print, part of a series celebrating the seasons, exemplifies the Dutch Golden Age's fascination with the natural world and its artistic representation.
