"Bloem tussen twee vogels" (Flower Between Two Birds) is an engraving by Theodor Bang, dating from around 1600-1617. The artwork features a delicate floral design with a large, central blossom, surrounded by intricate, flowing foliage. Two birds, perched on the stems, add a touch of whimsy to the composition. This piece exemplifies the delicate beauty and intricate detail often seen in 17th-century Dutch engravings, which were popular for their decorative use in books and other publications.
