Een man schiet een vrouw te hulp 1704

Bernard Picart's etching, "Een man schiet een vrouw te hulp" (1704), depicts a man in a powdered wig and elaborate clothing offering assistance to a woman who is kneeling and reaching out to him. The man’s sword is visible, perhaps suggesting a sense of chivalry or heroism in his actions. This small yet detailed etching showcases Picart's skill in capturing human interaction and emphasizing the contrast between their social positions, common themes in his work.
