This 16th-century print by Heinrich Aldegrever, titled *Albumblad met twee prenten met Fortuna en een nautilusbokaal* (Album Leaf with Two Prints of Fortuna and a Nautilus Cup), features two engravings. The larger engraving portrays a nautilus cup held aloft by a figure. It is adorned with a figure of Fortuna atop the cup, and two putti flanking the cup. This print, now located in the Rijksmuseum, offers insight into Renaissance artistic practices and the depiction of classical themes.
