Mercury Beholds Trade and Shipping, Gerard de Lairesse, c. 1670 Canvas Print

From the air Mercury with a trumpet in his hands sees the personified Handel (caduceus) and Scheepvaart (sailing ship in miniature). A putto brings the Trade a coin-filled horn. Behind this is a second putto of packaged merchandise. The personified shipping company stands behind the Handel and has put a hand on her shoulder. Behind this group of figures stands on a high pedestal a statue of Peace (olive branch), flanked by a trumpet-blowing angel. On the right is a large globe with a view of a harbour behind it.
