Werklieden, een grote kist en gereedschap Possibly 1677 - 1696

This anonymous engraving, likely dating back to between 1677 and 1696, depicts a method for extracting water from wells. The detailed illustration showcases a complex system of pulleys, ropes, and a large basket, operated by several workers. The inclusion of labels in Italian suggests this print was part of a larger work aimed at a technical audience. The image's clear lines and precise representation of the machinery highlight the practicality and ingenuity of the time.
