This etching by Carel Allard, titled "Inwoners van Mozambique, 1726," depicts two Mozambican figures standing in profile. The figures are likely natives of the area, with the man carrying a shield and spear and the woman carrying a child and a basket. The artwork, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to Allard's artistic talent in capturing the details of everyday life in 18th-century Mozambique.
