Frontispiece to 1744 and later editions of Giambattista Vico's The New Science. "Just as Cebes the Theban once made a Tablet of things moral, so I present here a Tableau of civil institutions. Before reading my work, you may use this tableau to form an idea of my New Science. And after reading it, you will find that this tableau aids your imagination in retaining my work in your memory." (Trans. David Marsh)

The image is great and seems to be dedicated rather to arts than to science.
Why I like for from this image is that it has many details. It is an imagine to be analyze there are many symbols in it
There's no doubt, the dude is absolutely right.
