This etching, "Twee leeuwenkoppen" (Two Lion Heads) by Dutch artist Bernard Picart (1673-1733) is a precise depiction of two lion heads. The detail in the fur, eyes and snout is remarkable, showcasing Picart's talent for naturalistic rendering. Created in 1729, it's a fine example of the artist's work, which often explored animal studies with great accuracy. The artwork is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
