Abstract
In 1619 Johannes Theodor de Bry published Julius Zincgreff’s Hundred Ethical-Political Emblems. Emblem LXXX uses a quote from Vergilius’ Bucolica as its motto: “We cannot all do everything“. Its pictura, created by de Bry’s son-in-law Matthäus Merian, shows a set of keys hovering over some buildings in a landscape.
