"De Gerechtigheid, zittend tussen Geloof en Liefde," a drawing by Flemish Baroque painter Jacques Jordaens, depicts Justice, seated between Faith and Charity. Created between 1643 and 1647, this artwork now resides at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Justice, an angelic figure with wings, holds scales and a sword, symbolizing her role in upholding law and order. The composition is visually dynamic, emphasizing the relationship between the three virtues and their respective symbols. This drawing exemplifies Jordaens' mastery of composition and his skillful use of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and drama.
