Summary[edit]

Description
Nederlands: Allegorie op de ontdekking en bestraffing van sodomie in Nederland, 1730. De Nederlandse Maagd als de Rechtvaardigheid met balans en zwaard in de handen, zittend op een troon. Onder de troon tilt Vader Tijd een dekzeil op waaronder een gezelschap van acht (homosexuele) mannen. Boven de Tijd zweeft de hemelse wraak met vlammend zwaard. Rechts de zonden als geboeide vrouwen. Op de achtergrond de stad Sodom die door vuur uit de hemel wordt verbrand. Bij de voorstelling behoort een los tekstblad met een vers in twee kolommen.
English: Representation of the Netherlands destroyed by water and fire, while allegories of Truth and Virtue uncover a group of sodomites. On top, Justice looks at it from above, as does a figure holding a flaming sword and a scroll that reads "men, leaving the natural use of the woman" (Romans 1:27). The conveyed meaning is that Dutch sodomites will incur Gods wrath, who, as a consequence, will destroy the Netherlands.
Italiano: Incisione anonima che ritrae sullo sfondo l'Olanda distrutta dall'acqua e dal fuoco dall'ira divina per i peccati dei sodomiti, mentre in primo piano allegorie della Verità e della Virtù scoprono un gruppo di sodomiti dal velo di segretezza sotto cui si erano nascosti. Al di sopra veglia la Giustizia, con la spada in mano, che si prepara a colpire i sodomiti.
