Scripture Reference:
Description: Two women are resting in a valley, watching farmers plowing and harvesting the fields. In the background is a snowcapped mountain. The Dutch artist and poet Jan Luiken (1649-1712) was responsible for drawing this emblem and composed the poem that accompanies it. The etching was executed by Jan Luiken or his son Casper Luiken (1672-1708), who had used this image in an earlier work, which may be found in the Digital Image Archive under the call number 1699Weig. The attendant scriptures are Luke 14:11 and James 4:6.
