This is a drawing by Dutch artist Mattheus Terwesten, dated between 1680 and 1757. Titled *Ontwerp voor een plafond met Waarheid, Tijd en Liefde,* the artwork is a design for a ceiling painting featuring Truth, Time, and Love. The central figure is a woman holding a flaming heart in one hand, representing Love, surrounded by angels who embody the concepts of Truth and Time. Terwesten's design is a preparatory study for a large-scale ceiling fresco. It is now on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
