Description
English: Clio, the muse of history, instructs a young nobleman. The lessons are revealed by Time, who pulls back a curtain to show a theater of the past. The principals in that scene, Love, Fortune, and Death, spread their favors with abandon. The image was used as the frontispiece to a 1732 edition of Samuel Pufendorf's Introduction à l'histoire générale et politique de l'univers.
