The allegory of Concordia (Unity) sits below the Justice

Ambrogio Lorenzetti,

Allegoria del Buon Governo [1338-39]

detail personification of Concordia

Palazzo Pubblico, Siena

 

Two ropes start from the waistline of the two angels, which come together at the hands of Concordia, a direct follower of Justice and also seated on a chair and with a planer in her lap, a symbol of equality and "leveler" of the contrasts.
