Fall of man, Hieronymus Wierix, 1578 Canvas Print
Allegory of man's demise. The Worldly Man (Mundanus Homo) falls into the floor with the table and all through the open hatch. The devil (Diabolus) keeps his nets ready to catch him. A, Sin (Peccatum), pulls the Worldly Man by his coat so that she can pierce him with her arrow. In the middle, Death (Mors) points his arrow at the falling man. He is held back by the Divine Grace (Gratia). Above her head the dove of the Holy Ghost. On the far right fight Arrogance (Arrogantia), the man with helmet, shield and raised sword, Ambition (Ambitio) and Violence (Violentia). They compete for the earthly riches that have fallen from Vanitas' bed through the hole in the floor. The performance is clarified in the Dutch, French and German captions on the margins.
