The central figure, a woman, holds a sceptre adorned with an eye, symbolizing the importance of being far-sighted about one's own modesty. This engraving is part of the renowned book "Iconologie oder Ideen aus dem Gebiete der Leidenschaften und Allegorien bildich dargestellt fur Zeichner, Mahler, Dichter, Gelehrte, Erzieher und freunde Hoherer Geschmacksbildung" (Iconology or ideas from the realm of passions and allegories depicted visually for draftsmen, painters, poets, scholars, educators and friends of higher aesthetic education), published in Vienna in 1801.
