"Waternimf Camerina" is an engraving by Philips Galle from 1587. This small print depicts a nude female figure, Camerina, reclining on a rock by a lake. The composition of the engraving is reminiscent of Renaissance art, with a strong emphasis on anatomy and a naturalistic setting. The figure of Camerina is rendered in detail, with a focus on the curves of her body. This artwork is a good example of the Northern Renaissance style, which emphasized realism and detailed depictions of human form and landscape.
