"Mnester doodt zich op het lijk van Agrippina" is a 19th-century etching by Giuseppe Mochetti. The print depicts a dramatic scene from Roman history, where Mnester, a Roman soldier, takes his own life on the pyre of Agrippina. The image is filled with emotion, conveying the pain and despair of the scene. The use of dark, muted tones contributes to the somber atmosphere of the artwork. This print is a powerful example of the Neoclassical style popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
