This 17th-century engraving by Dutch artist Reinier van Persijn, depicts a classical female figure, likely a goddess, holding a cornucopia overflowing with fruit. Her stance and the abundance of fruit symbolize prosperity and abundance, themes relevant to the 17th century. The engraving showcases van Persijn's skill in capturing the details of the sculpture, including the folds of the drapery and the delicate features of the figure. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of the influence of classical sculpture on Dutch art during this period.
