Earth (Terra): seated veiled figure with staff in an engraved landscape
An engraving titled TERRA shows a seated, veiled female figure gripping a staff and gazing downward, with a rocky outcrop at right. Behind her, a hilly landscape holds a distant walled town, and small figures work the land beside a cave-like opening. Latin verses fill the lower margin.
