Virgo prudentissima
Mary, an autonomous figure with arms outstretched in a noble gesture of openness and invitation, presents the double characteristics of virgin (Immaculate Conception highlighted by the twelve stars around her head), and mother (her womb bears the Christ monogram).  Her figure is surrounded with a perfect circle symbolizing perfection of human knowledge and behavior.  It is decorated with symbols of science (compass, square, globe, and telescope), and with cameos showing animal allegories of prudence.
