This anonymous etching, dated between 1512 and 1570, titled "Venus droogt zich af na bad en Amor met pijl en boog in landschap" depicts the Roman goddess Venus drying herself after a bath with the god of love, Cupid, standing by her side with his bow and arrow. The image is set against a backdrop of a coastal landscape with fortified towns, a common motif in Renaissance art. The composition emphasizes the contrast between the idealized figures of Venus and Cupid and the rugged landscape, highlighting the theme of love and beauty in nature. This artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
