Weegschaal met een bijbel en een rijksappel 1823

This 1823 engraving by Dutch artist Daniël Veelwaard depicts a balance scale with a book and a sphere on either side. The scale is set against a simple landscape background with trees and a cloudy sky. The image, likely intended as an illustration, is a visually striking representation of the concept of weight and balance. It is also a fine example of the work of a Dutch artist from this period.
