This allegorical engraving by Thomas Cockson, titled *Allegorische voorstelling met Waarheid en Leugen* (Allegorical Representation with Truth and Lie) depicts two women. One woman personifies Truth, holding a mirror and wearing a crown. The other personifies Lie, with a mask in one hand and a snake in the other. The engraving was made in 1624, and it is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum. The artwork is a fine example of allegorical imagery in engraving, showcasing the clash between truth and falsehood.
