This engraving by William Woollett, titled *Landschap met vader van Psyche die offert voor de tempel van Apollo*, depicts a classical landscape with a temple dedicated to Apollo. The scene is set in a serene landscape, with a distant view of a bridge and rolling hills. In the foreground, a group of figures, likely representing Psyche's father, offer sacrifices before the temple. The engraving, dating back to 1760, is a fine example of Woollett's skill in capturing detail and creating a sense of depth. The use of light and shadow further enhances the composition's realism. The artwork is now in the Rijksmuseum collection.
