Minerva Visits Women Spinning and Weaving, Bernard Picart, 1717 Canvas Print

Minerva visits women who purr wool and wee dust. She holds a weaving pattern in her hand and points out women looking at the fabric. Above the loom a spider's web, in reference to Arachne being turned into a spider by her. In the background a face at sea. The performance is captured in an exuberantly decorated cartouche that is awarded by Vader Tijd, the personification of Shipping (with sailing ship in miniature) and Mercury. At the bottom a four-line poem in French.
