<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 7332584, member: 110350"]It's weird when the attributes of a reverse image directly contradict the identification signified by the legend. I think most would go with the personification indicated by the legend, regardless of the attributes. Except for Virtus legends, which can't signify Virtus herself when the personification depicted is male (e.g., the emperor or Mars), and instead generally signify the emperor or Mars reflecting the qualities of "Virtus." But this is a different kind of situation -- an image of one female personification identified by the name of another.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
