Description:

This tondo painting presents an allegorical scene. Father Time, depicted as a winged, elderly man in blue drapery, powerfully lifts Truth, a radiant, semi-nude female figure, upwards towards the light. Below them, two allegorical figures representing Envy and Discord are shown in distress and contortion. Envy, often associated with snakes, appears to be recoiling, while Discord, perhaps indicated by her disheveled appearance, seems to be in conflict. Above, a putto, possibly representing divine assistance or clarity, flies with a circle, perhaps symbolizing the cyclical nature of time or the wholeness of truth. The scene is set against a backdrop of clouds and rocky terrain, suggesting a celestial or elevated realm where this struggle unfolds. The circular format, or tondo, emphasizes the dynamic and interconnected nature of the allegory.
