"Twee ridders in harnas verdedigen elkaar in een rotslandschap" (Two Knights in Armor Defending Each Other in a Rocky Landscape), is a black and white etching by Belgian artist Auguste Numans (1823-1883). The scene depicts two knights, armed with shields and swords, defending themselves against a menacing, craggy landscape. The etching likely reflects Numans' interest in romanticism and chivalry. The detail of the rocky terrain, the knights, and the faint glimpse of a distant fortress in the background showcase Numans' skill in capturing the dramatic and atmospheric qualities of the Romantic style.
