Mirror of the Example, Theodore Galle, 1610 Canvas Print

In the foreground two believers. They kneel before a mirrored drique, which shows the reflection of Christ and Mary. In the background, paragons of devotion: Saint Martin and Saint Francis giving their cloaks to beggars and an elephant as a sign of wisdom.. The print has a Latin caption: 'Lucet, et inflammat, Specvlvm exemplaris honesti; Virtutem alterius si cupis esse tuam'. At the bottom a legend of the scenes that are numbered alphabetically on the image. The print is part of a twelve-part series (X from XII prints) with the subject twelve mirrors with which man tries to see God.
