"Epitaaf versierd met medaillons," created in 1741 by Jacob Folkema, is an engraving featuring a classical-inspired design. The artwork includes figures representing various virtues or concepts, set within a decorative frame. The use of medallion portraits, draped fabric, and a detailed floral border are typical of Dutch Baroque engravings. Folkema's work showcases intricate detail and a clear understanding of classical iconography. This small-scale engraving, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the precision and artistry of Dutch engraving in the 18th century.
