Triton met vrouw in gevecht met een zeemonster 1628 - 1682

This 17th-century etching by French artist Jean Lepautre, titled "Triton met vrouw in gevecht met een zeemonster," depicts the mythical figure Triton battling a sea monster. The scene is rendered in intricate detail, with strong lines emphasizing the muscularity of Triton and the ferociousness of the creature. The dynamic composition and expressive figures create a sense of drama and tension, typical of Baroque art. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a testament to Lepautre's skill in capturing the human form and the intricacies of the natural world.
