The world turned upside down: oxen drive men, women serenade men and give them roses, a horse sits in a carriage drawn by men, a horse rides on the back of a man, the sheep chases the lion, everything is reversed. Coloured etching.

Lettering
Il mondo alla rovescia. Ogni costume è qui cangiato affatto, / E più non reca motla maraviglia, / Perchè del mondo chi ben fatto il ritratto, / Più l'esprime a rovescio, e più somigila.
