Cartouche met vrouw en leeuw 1750 - 1762

"Cartouche met vrouw en leeuw" is an etching created by Benedikt Winkler between 1750 and 1762. The piece depicts a cartouche, a decorative element often used to frame coats of arms, with a woman and a lion. Winkler's intricate detail is evident in the elaborate scrollwork and the expressive figures. The use of etching, a printmaking technique, allowed for the creation of multiple copies of this design, which is now housed in the Rijksmuseum. This artwork is a testament to Winkler's skill as a draughtsman and engraver, showcasing his mastery of line and composition.
