Sull’opera
Prints like this, intended to be hung in homes and schools, usually wore out and were discarded. This engraving, only two surviving impressions of which are known, illustrates a selection of 43 proverbs. The main legend refers to an old Netherlandish saying for a husband who is cuckolded by his wife: ‘She gives her husband the blue cloak.’
