"Bacchanaal met vijf kinderen" is a small etching by Zacharie Heince, dating from around 1630-1635. The print depicts a scene of revelry, with five children gathered around a large bowl of grapes. One child is holding a bunch of grapes while another holds a bottle. The artist uses hatching and cross-hatching to create a sense of depth and form. Heince was a Dutch artist known for his etchings and engravings. This work reflects his skill in capturing the fleeting moments of childhood play and the themes of indulgence and joy.
