This black and white print, titled "Opvoeding van Jupiter met de geit Amalthea" (The Education of Jupiter with the Goat Amalthea) was created by William Unger, a Dutch artist, between 1847-1889. The print depicts the mythological scene of Jupiter, the Roman god of the sky and thunder, being raised by the nymph Amalthea, who is depicted holding a goat's horn. The scene is set in a pastoral landscape with a large tree in the background. The image is a good example of Unger's work, which often featured mythological subjects. Unger's work was popular in the Netherlands, and he was known for his detailed drawings. This print is now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
