Mirror of the Holy Scriptures, Theodore Galle, 1610 Canvas Print
In the foreground a cross with five mirrors. In the central mirror, the Holy Scriptures. In the four mirrors around the symbols of the four evangelists. Five rays from the Holy Scriptures flow to five hearts, symbolic of the influence that holy scripture has on man. In the background, paragons of the power of Holy Scripture: a sermon; charitable giving; taking confession; Moses obtains the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai; the creation of the sun. The print has a Latin caption: 'Quid fugias, quid ames facra cum tibi page monftrat; The Caelo lapfi quam Specvli instar habet'. At the bottom a legend of the scenes that are numbered alphabetically on the image. The print is part of a twelve-part series (IX from XII prints) with the subject twelve mirrors with which man tries to see God.
