This engraving, *Twee putti dragen het wapen van aartshertog Leopold Willem van Oostenrijk* (1660), by Flemish artist Coenraet Waumans (1619-1681), is a depiction of two cherubs holding the coat of arms of Archduke Leopold Wilhelm of Austria. This detail likely comes from a larger work, and highlights Waumans's skill in capturing the delicate features of the putti and the intricate detail of the shield. The piece, now in the Rijksmuseum, represents the artistic trends and techniques of the 17th century in the Netherlands.
