"Vaas met drie oren" (Vase with Three Ears) is an engraving by Gabriel Huquier, a French artist, created between 1729 and 1737. This detailed etching showcases a vase with three handles, meticulously crafted with intricate ornamentation on its rim and base. The careful shading and rendering of the vase evoke its three-dimensional form, emphasizing its decorative elements and classical design. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this print represents Huquier’s skill in capturing the beauty of decorative objects through the medium of engraving.
