Jupiter en Juno discussiëren over de vraag bij welke van de seksen de lust in liefde groter is, BI-1892-3357-47

The king and queen of the gods sit together in the foreground, accompanied by their symbolic eagle and peacock, gesturing as they argue. In the background, a divine banquet takes place where other deities feast at a long table served by a muscular attendant. Putti hover in the sky above, scattering flowers over the celestial gathering.

This scene illustrates Book III of Ovid's Metamorphoses, a primary source for Renaissance mythological allegory often interpreted through Neoplatonic lenses regarding the nature of the soul and the union of opposites. The debate leads to the summoning of Tiresias, whose dual experience as both man and woman made him a figure of profound esoteric interest concerning the reconciliation of gendered dualities.
