"Tweedracht" (Discord) is an engraving by Enea Vico, a prominent Italian artist of the 16th century, created between 1533 and 1567. The print depicts a female figure representing Discord, holding a burning torch in one hand and a lute in the other, symbolizing the destructive power of discord and its ability to ignite conflict. Vico's masterful use of line and shading gives the artwork a sense of depth and realism, while the intricate details of the landscape and figures add to the overall visual appeal.
