Titelpagina voor: Nederlandsche Muzen-Almanak 1829 1829

This engraving by Johannes Christiaan Bendorp, created in 1829, is the title page for the Dutch periodical "Nederlandsche Muzen-Almanak". The image depicts a woman, likely a Muse, standing beside a lyre and an altar with a coat of arms. The engraving is a fine example of Dutch Neoclassical art, characterized by its emphasis on classical themes and forms. The title page, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Bendorp's artistic skill and the flourishing of Dutch cultural publications in the early 19th century.
