Reliëf ondersteund door twee sfinxen 1661

This 1661 engraving by Antoine (le jeune) Pierretz, titled "Reliëf ondersteund door twee sfinxen," features a highly decorative, intricate design. The central octagonal frame, supported by two sphinxes, showcases a female figure in classical dress. Surrounding this frame are two cherubs and an abundance of flora and fauna, creating a lavish and exuberant scene. This style, characteristic of Baroque art, highlights elaborate ornamentation and dramatic contrasts. The use of light and shadow further enhances the sense of depth and dynamism within the composition.
