"Liefde met het wapenschild van de aartsbisschop van Parijs" is an etching created by Bernard Picart in 1702. The artwork depicts a female figure personifying love, seated on a pedestal with the coat of arms of the Archbishop of Paris behind her. Two cherubs flank the figure, one offering a flower while the other points toward the shield. The etching's intricate detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of depth and dimensionality, typical of Picart's style. This small yet detailed work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, demonstrates the artistry of etching during the Baroque period.
