Original – The three human heads represent the "Three Ages of Man" (youth, maturity and old age). They depict the aged Titian, his son Orazio and a young cousin, Marco Vecellio. An inscription on the painting gives an indication of the subject and its title, reading (in Latin) "From the experience of the past, the present acts prudently, lest it spoil future actions".
