Die Allegorie Italiens, eine Frau bekleidet mit Rüstung, der städtischen Zinnenkrone und der Fahne Italiens wehrt mit ihrem Schwert den deutschen Barbaren aus dem Norden ab, der mordend und brennend über die Berge kommt. Das Bild knüpft an das Selbstverständnis Italiens als Erbe des Römischen Reiches an, in dem jeder Nichtrömer als Barbar galt
