Justitia, De Gerechtigheid. NL-HlmNHA 1477 53008503

A monumental female figure stands in a rugged landscape, holding a large upright sword in her right hand and balanced scales in her left. She is dressed in heavy, classical drapery that emphasizes her powerful physique, a hallmark of the Haarlem Mannerist style. In the far background, a small figure of a traveler and a distant cityscape are visible under a cloudy sky.

As one of the four Cardinal Virtues, Justice represents the principle of 'suum cuique' (to each his own), reflecting the Neoplatonic idea of a cosmic order governed by divine measure. The accompanying verse suggests that Justice acts as a mediating force that reconciles the human realm with the divine through counsel and balance.
