Naakte man toont bijl aan halfnaakte vrouw 1510 - 1527

"Naakte man toont bijl aan halfnaakte vrouw" (Naked man shows ax to half-naked woman) is a 16th-century engraving by Marcantonio Raimondi, an Italian Renaissance artist renowned for his masterful technique. The artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases a scene with two figures. One, a nude man, holds an ax while the other, a woman partially draped in a garment, looks away. Raimondi's mastery is evident in the detailed depiction of anatomy and the skillful use of light and shadow. This print, a striking example of the High Renaissance style, is a testament to the artist's influence on the development of printmaking.
