This print has been loosely stitched together with a series of plates representing Pietro da Cortona's ceiling frescoes 'Allegory of Divine Providence and Barberini Power' for the salone of Palazzo Barberini, Rome painted 1630-33. The prints are dedicated to Gaspar de Guzman, Count of Olivares and Duke of Sanlucar (1587-1645). The frontispiece bares the name of Giovanni Giacomo de Rossi who published the series.
