This intricate engraving, "Tafel met grote spiegel" (Table with a large mirror), was created by Daniël Marot in 1712. The piece showcases the opulence of the Baroque era, with its ornate details and emphasis on symmetry. The design features a grand mirror, a table, and two pedestals, all elaborately adorned with cherubs, garlands, and sculpted figures. This type of design was typical of Marot, a prominent architect and designer, who was known for his work in the Dutch Republic and France. The engraving would have been used to guide the construction of such decorative items, reflecting the increasing popularity of the Baroque style in interior design.
