The personification of Favor (Favor) rewards every virtuous person. In her hands a heart with a shovel (love of the worker) and a heart with a scepter (love of the ruler). In the background, the man who visits the sick is rewarded with a bag of money, while the basket weavers are rewarded by the king with privileges. The print has a Dutch, Latin and French caption and is part of a twelve-part series on the degeneration of the Catholic clergy and the causes of the revolt and iconoclasm, From High to Low, Man is Rewarded for His Virtue Deterioration of the Catholic Clergy (series title), print
