"Gevicht tussen twee gewapende mannen" is an etching by Abraham Dircksz. Santvoort, dating back to 1667. The artwork depicts a duel between two men in front of a large crowd, taking place in an open square. The background features a city skyline, suggesting the scene is set in an urban environment. Santvoort, known for his detailed and expressive style, captures the intensity of the duel through dynamic lines and contrasting light and shadow. This etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a compelling example of the Dutch Golden Age's fascination with action and drama.
