Personification of Prelaatchap, Robert van Audenaerd, 1673 - 1743 print There is a high priest on a stool on a console. He holds a clock in his right hand. In his left hand an eclipse sun with the text: Non Nisi Cum Defect Spectator Habet (without shortly she has no viewers). So: a sound prelate does not get any attention, but when he makes a mistake all eyes are aimed at him. The clock expresses that prelates are the timepieces of the world. They serve people to measure all movements. They serve the people as a rule and example. The print is part of an album. paper engraving 'Prelature'
