Copy after a 1503 design by Jacopo de' Barbari, now in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The moralistic theme of couples with a significant age difference was particularly popular during the Protestant Reformation. The present subject is also interpreted as personified Agape (unconditional love) with the husband.
