This title print, created by Reinier Vinkeles in 1793, depicts a figure kneeling beside a stone urn, surrounded by a snake, spears, and foliage. The composition, a common feature of title prints of the time, served as a decorative element for the book "Ines de Castro" by Rhijnvis Feith. Vinkeles, a prominent Dutch engraver, was known for his intricate and detailed work in the neoclassical style. This piece is a testament to his mastery of line and detail, showcasing his ability to capture the essence of the text through a visually compelling image. The Rijksmuseum houses this small-scale print, which measures 235 mm in height and 157 mm in width.
