Reverse Copy of Les Deux Pantalons se Tournant le Dos (Two Men in Pantsuits Turned Away from Each Other), from "Les Caprices" 1620 - 1700

This 17th-century etching by an anonymous artist depicts two figures in pantsuits, turned away from each other. This print, titled “Reverse Copy of Les Deux Pantalons se Tournant le Dos (Two Men in Pantsuits Turned Away from Each Other),” is a reverse copy of a design from the series "Les Caprices" by Jacques Callot. The figures are rendered with expressive detail, their exaggerated poses and intricate costumes reflecting the playful and satirical nature of Callot's work. This print is an excellent example of the artistic trends of the 17th century, with its focus on caricature and the use of etching as a medium.
