More information

This allegory of Abundance shows three women around a large cornucopia. On the right sits the goddess Ceres with some ears of maize in her left hand. The naked woman on the left is Pomona, the goddess of fruit trees. The print is a reproduction of a large painting from around 1624 which is now in the Prado in Madrid; the figures in it were painted by Rubens, the fruit and animals by Snyders.
