Herfst 1566

This 1566 print, “Herfst” (Autumn), by Pieter van der Heyden, depicts two nude figures in a landscape. The figures, likely representing the season of autumn, are surrounded by fruit and a tree in the center of the image. The figures are framed by elaborate, symmetrical, decorative elements in a Renaissance style. The print is small, measuring 68 mm wide by 102 mm high, and is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum.
