Het gevoel 1712 - 1755

"Het gevoel" (The Feeling) is an etching by Johann Georg Pintz, created between 1712 and 1755. The artwork is a decorative design featuring intricate, swirling foliage in the Rococo style. The central vignette depicts a scene from Roman mythology, with a classical figure and a bowl of burning incense. The design is a fine example of the elaborate ornamental patterns that characterized the Rococo era, and its delicate lines and playful curves were intended to inspire a sense of elegance and lightheartedness. "Het gevoel" is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and exemplifies the artistry of Johann Georg Pintz, a prominent engraver of the 18th century.
