Kind spelend met een hond 1510 - 1569

"Kind spelend met een hond" is a small, intricate engraving by Jacob Binck, a Dutch artist known for his mastery of this technique. Created sometime between 1510 and 1569, the piece depicts a cherubic child playfully interacting with a dog within a circular frame. The detailed lines and delicate shading capture the tender moment, while the ornate floral motifs surrounding the central figures add a sense of beauty and whimsy. The work, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artist's talent for capturing innocence and everyday interactions with exquisite detail.
