Marco Dente's engraving "Eurydice naked standing on a rock, her arms raised to the right" depicts the Greek mythological figure Eurydice in a dramatic pose. The print, created between 1510 and 1532, showcases Dente's mastery of line and detail, with a focus on Eurydice's expressive anatomy and the rocky landscape. The oval shape of the print adds to its visual appeal, further emphasizing the dramatic nature of the scene. The artwork is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
