"Slapende man en nimf achtervolgd door Amor" (Sleeping Man and Nymph Pursued by Amor) is an engraving by the Italian artist Marcantonio Raimondi, created between 1510 and 1527. The print depicts a sleeping man, a nymph fleeing from the winged god Amor, and a tree in the background. Raimondi was known for his mastery of line and detail, evident in the delicate rendering of the figures and the surrounding landscape. This engraving, now housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, showcases the artist's ability to capture the human form and the dynamics of a mythological narrative within a compact format.
