Description

A young child sucks at the breast of the personification of Nature (Natura). A globe floats in the air, with all kinds of tools that people use in their daily work. A bird flies above the globe: just as a bird is created to fly, it is in the nature of man to work in his life. The print has a Latin caption and is part of a series about the rewards of human labor.
