"LI Et sic parantur opes," a 1614 engraving by Roemer Visscher, depicts two crossed sticks with nets attached. It appears to be a page from a larger book of illustrations, and the image is accompanied by text written in Dutch. This image is likely an illustration for a fable, proverb, or story, suggesting the theme of acquiring wealth or resources through cunning or effort. The detailed engraving and the use of text alongside the image are characteristic of Visscher's work, which often focused on moral and allegorical themes. The work can be found in the Rijksmuseum.
