"Die Zeit enthüllt die Wahrheit" (Time reveals the truth) is a 1776 drawing by French artist Clément Pierre Marillier. The piece depicts a woman holding a mirror to the sky as if she were revealing the truth of the cosmos. A winged figure, Time, is seen above wielding a scythe and covering the world with his cloth. The Städel Museum houses the artwork which is a fine example of Rococo artistic style, with its emphasis on elegance and emotional content.
