Whole artwork view. Caricatural representation of the judgement of Solomon, the characters depicted as pygmei; on a sacrificial table, the child subject of the debate is in her alleged mother's arms, while his natural mother begs the soldier, who is going to cut the child in two part, in order to safe the baby's life; on the pedestal, Solomon is sustained by two soldiers, while other soldiers and spectators stare bewildered at the scene; on the right, an edifice whose entrance is overshadowed by a canvas; from Casa del Medico.
