This 17th-century etching by Paul (de Jonge) Flindt, titled "Liggend ovaal met een eenhoorn," depicts a unicorn in an oval frame. The unicorn is shown in a landscape setting, framed by a decorative border featuring stylized scrolls and a view of a town and a bridge. Flindt's intricate depiction of the mythical creature and its surroundings showcases the artist's mastery of detail and skill in printmaking, making this artwork a fine example of 17th-century Dutch engraving.
