Warning against adultery and venereal disease, Landscape with a fountain on the left with a statue of Venus and Cupid. Water flows from the breasts of Venus. The fountain is the origin of a stream, in which a dog urinates in the foreground. A scholar stands next to the source and points to it. Despite his warning, a shepherd drinks from the stream. Front left an adulterous woman with horns on her head. She plays the lute and is probably the personification of Lust. The print has a Latin caption with warnings against adulteresses from the book of Proverbs and the book of Ecclesiastes., print
