Description
Italiano: Ritrae Ercole incerto sulla scelta fra due sonne. Quella di destra con veste trasparente rappresenta il Piacere, e gli indica la strada piana tra carte da gioco, maschere teatrali e strumenti musicali. La donna vestita a sinistra invece rappresenta la Virtù che gli indica una strada faticosa, stretta ed in salita, in cima alla quale però lo attende il cavallo alato Pegaso, emblema del casato Farnese, che lo condurrà alla gloria ed in cielo.
Deutsch: Es zeigt Herkules im Zweifel über die Entscheidung zwischen zwei Frauen. Die rechte, die "Freude", mit durchsichtiger Kleidung angetan, weist auf eine Straße mit Kartenspiel, Theatermasken und Musikinstrumenten. Die Frau zur Linken ist die Tugend, weist einen schmalen steilen Weg, wo jedoch das geflügelte Pferd Pegasus wartet, das Symbol der Familie Farnese, das zum Himmel führt.
