Légende
Sic itur ad astra scilicet 1681. By Romeyn de Hooghe, 1645-1708, artist. Print shows scene in a bawdy house of pleasure frequented by Father Petre and other Jesuits where they mingle and dine with such figures as: Wantonness, Avarice, Sloth, Fury, and Vanity. Priests engage in lascivious acts and steal money from a dying person, a Protestant minister is driven away from the door, a fox delivers a sermon from a pulpit, and Jesuits help themselves to treasures in India.
