This 1737 engraving by Dutch artist Jacob Folkema, titled "Putti spelen met attributen van de kunsten en wetenschap" (Putti Playing with Attributes of the Arts and Sciences), features cherubic figures, or putti, engaged in playful activities related to art and science. The scene is depicted within a decorative frame, with a globe and other scientific instruments scattered across the floor. This small-scale print likely served as a decorative element in a private collection or as an illustration for a book. The cherubic figures and their activities are depicted in a playful and whimsical manner, reflecting the Rococo style popular in the 18th century.
