"Term met guirlandes van fruit en de drie gratiën" is a 16th-century engraving depicting a term, a type of architectural element, adorned with a cornucopia of fruits and three Graces, the personifications of beauty, charm, and pleasure. The print is likely a reproduction of a classical sculpture, a common practice during the Renaissance. The three Graces are depicted as nude figures holding hands, further emphasizing the theme of unity and beauty, while the term stands as a symbol of strength and stability. This engraving, part of a series on terms, is a testament to the appreciation of classical art in 16th-century Europe.
