Vergil schilderte in der Aeneis (X, 1-14) eine Begebenheit aus dem Trojanischen Krieg: Jupiter hatte alle olympischen Götter zusammengerufen, um sie zum Frieden zu gemahnen - doch Venus, die ihren Enkel Aeneas und die Trojaner unterstützen wollte, widerspricht Jupiter in dieser Sache. Mit dem Amorknaben an der Hand redet sie auf den nachdenklich sinnenden Jupiter und dessen Gemahlin Juno ein, die als Gegnerin der Trojaner bekannt ist. Ganz links beugt sich die geharnischte Minerva zu Juno herab, hinter dem Göttervater erkennt man Diana an ihrem Monddiadem. Halb verdeckt vom Arm der Venus wohnen zudem Apoll mit seiner Leier als Attribut und der Kriegsgott Mars dem Geschehen bei, während am rechten Bildrand Herkules mit Löwenfell und Keule heranschreitet.
