This is a detailed, intricate drawing of a cup from the late 16th century. The anonymous artist has rendered the cup with exquisite detail, showing every curve and flourish of the intricate ornamentation. The use of teardrop-shaped motifs, floral patterns, and cherub faces are typical of the Mannerist style prevalent in the Netherlands during this period. This drawing was likely created as a design for a goldsmith or silversmith to use in crafting the actual cup. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
