Twee putti stoeiend bij een plant in pot 1675 - 1685

"Twee putti stoeiend bij een plant in pot" is an etching by Pietro Antonio Cotta dating from 1675-1685. This artwork depicts two cherubs, or putti, engaged in a playful struggle amidst a potted plant. The etching style, characterized by delicate lines and shading, emphasizes the cherubs' youthful exuberance and the intricate details of the plant. The scene is reminiscent of classical Roman sculpture, a testament to Cotta's artistic influences. This small-scale work, now in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the artist's skill in capturing both the energy of youthful play and the beauty of natural forms.
