This engraving, titled "Rocaille met de personificatie van de Meetkunde (Geometrie)" or "Rococo with the Personification of Geometry", was created by Jeremias Wachsmuth between 1719 and 1749. It depicts a female figure representing Geometry, surrounded by intricate Rococo ornamentation, including swirling scrolls, shell-like forms, and cherubs. The composition showcases the decorative style of the Rococo period, emphasizing asymmetry, playful curves, and an overall sense of movement. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. This piece offers a glimpse into the artistic trends of the 18th century, where the Rococo style flourished in Europe.
