Bustes van Crispina en Lucilla 1636 - 1647

This etching by Dutch artist Theodor Matham depicts busts of Roman women Crispina and Lucilla. Created between 1636 and 1647, the work is a fine example of 17th century engraving, showcasing meticulous detail in the rendering of the classical sculptures. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the fascination with Roman antiquity during the Baroque period and highlights the technical skill of Matham in capturing the form and texture of the original statues.
