"Titelprent met leeg wapenschild geflankeerd door twee Genii" is an etching from the 17th century by Dutch artist Israel Silvestre. This decorative artwork features a blank coat of arms, a typical feature of title pages in the 17th century. The coat of arms is flanked by two cherubs, one on each side. It is framed by a baroque-style frame with scrolling ornaments, a nod to the popular aesthetic of the era. The etching is a fine example of Silvestre's skill in capturing intricate details and the delicate grace of the human form. It exemplifies the Dutch Baroque style's emphasis on decorative elements, and its presence in the Rijksmuseum reflects its significance in the history of art.
