Balthazar van den Bos’s 1548 etching, *Kan met oor, gedragen door drie figuren*, depicts a silver pitcher supported by three figures. The figures are naked and have grotesque faces, their bodies contorted in an awkward pose. The pitcher is adorned with decorative detailing and has a handle in the form of a large, decorative ring held by a grotesque figure. Van den Bos, a Dutch artist, was known for his detailed etchings of decorative objects. The Rijksmuseum houses this print, a small-scale artwork measuring 230 mm in height and 175 mm in width.
