This engraving, titled "Bassin en schenkkan" (Basin and Jug), is a 17th-century work attributed to an anonymous artist. Dating from c. 1655-1678, it depicts a lavishly decorated vase with a complex and ornate design. The central vase, crafted in a Baroque style, is adorned with intricate detailing, and the scene is further enriched by a background landscape visible through a framed window. This work, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the artistic trends of its time and offers a glimpse into the aesthetics of the Dutch Golden Age.
