This etching, "Power," by Carlo Innocenzo Carloni depicts a powerful female figure seated on clouds while being surrounded by putti. She holds a crown high above her head, symbolizing her authority. The etching is an example of the Rococo style, which was popular during the 18th century. It emphasizes elegance and grace through the soft curves and light-hearted subject matter. The work is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
