"Man op een steen gezeten wijst naar een man met zwaard, een liggend figuur vertrappend," is a small etching by Etienne Delaune, a French artist known for his work in the Mannerist style. Created between 1528 and 1583, this piece depicts a scene of violence and perhaps betrayal, with a figure pointing towards a man with a sword who steps on a fallen person. The detailed, intricate lines and the dynamic poses of the figures are characteristic of Delaune's works, highlighting the Mannerist penchant for exaggerated forms and dramatic storytelling. The etching's small size and the use of a simple, plain background further enhance the powerful imagery and heighten the sense of drama.
