Schrijver en zijn muze bij Parijs 1718

"Schrijver en zijn muze bij Parijs" (1718) by Dutch artist Bernard Picart (1673–1733) is an engraving depicting a writer and his muse in front of the city of Paris. This artwork is characterized by an elaborate Rococo style with its swirling lines, asymmetry, and delicate detail. The central vignette of the city, framed by a leafy, ornate design, highlights the importance of Parisian architecture and culture at the time. It was originally part of a larger work, likely a book or publication, and now resides in the Rijksmuseum.
