Transcription of Inscription:
PETRUS PETRI, LONGUS, AMSTELR. PICTOR.
Chromata mirantur docti, ductúsque viriles,
    Et Tabulas magnas quas tua dextra dedit.
Corpore longus eras : et formans Corpora longa,
    Tu, LONGE, ostendis magna placere tibi.

Translation of Inscription:
Pieter Aertsen, the Long of Amsterdam, painter.
The learned wonder at your colours, your manly strokes, and the great paintings which your hand produced.  You were long in body, and made long bodies: Long one, you have shown that great things please you.
