Monogrammed in the lef foreground: ‘Hh. ex.’ Inscription on the bottom: ‘FRANCISCO FLORO ANVERPIANO, PICTORI / Si pictor quantum natura, Flore, valebas, / Tantum adiunxisses artis et ipse tibi, / Dum tibi multa libet potius, quam pingere multum / Nec mora te limae iusta, laborque iuvat :/ Cedite clamarem, pictores, omnibus oris / Quos vel avi, nostri vel genuêre patres’.
