Minerva leads a weaving mill. Minerva visits women who woo to spin and fabric
Minerva leads a weaving mill. Minerva visits women who woo to spin and fabric. She holds a weaving pattern in hand and points to women looking at the fabric. Above the loom a spider web, as reference to Arachne that has changed through her in a spider. In the background ships that supply the raw materials. The performance is caught in an exuberantly decorated cartouche that is crowned by father's time, the city of Amsterdam and Mercury, the God of trade. Probably a trade label for a weaving mill in Amsterdam
