De planeet Jupiter en zijn kinderen, 1646
Harmen Jansz Muller

Witness the grand spectacle of Jupiter soaring across the sky in his chariot, majestically drawn by two peacocks. This celestial scene is complemented by the symbols of Sagittarius and Pisces, indicating those under Jupiter's influence - typically worldly or ecclesiastical rulers. A captivating tableau unfolds below, where a Pope crowns an Emperor, surrounded by cardinals and bishops. To the left, a judge presides from his throne. The backdrop is alive with a hunting scene, while at the bottom, a Latin inscription elaborates on Jupiter's offspring. This print is part of an album by Harmen Jansz Muller.
