"Kinderen met een adelaar" is an etching created in 1772-1773 by Antoine Alexandre Joseph Cardon. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts two cherubic figures interacting with an eagle. The cherubs stand on a rocky outcrop with a waterfall cascading down, while the eagle perches below them. This delicate etching, measuring 172 mm in height and 98 mm in width, displays Cardon's mastery of line and detail, creating a charming and whimsical scene.
