A scene depicting Cupid and a young mistress, or Campaspe, playing cards surrounded by four other young women.
Campaspe was the supposed lover of Alexander the Great; her name became a generic synonym for a man's young mistress in poetry and this meaning was popularised in John Lyly's (1553-1606) poem 'Cupid and my Campaspe play'd. At cards for kisses'. He also wrote a play titled 'Campaspe' (1584).
