## Commentary

This bronze figure of Justice is part of the tomb of William \(Willem\) the Silent. It is on the left of the prince, recognizable by the scales with which she balances good against evil. De Keyser&#39;s portrayal of this virtue is a combination of a classical goddess and a Dutch milkmaid.
