This 1793 etching by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki depicts a scene from classical mythology. Two women are shown offering flowers and music to a sculpture of the Three Graces, personifications of beauty, charm, and creativity. This vignette, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Chodowiecki's mastery of detail and his ability to capture the essence of classical themes in his artwork. The etching's delicate lines and precise rendering enhance the scene's elegance and allure. The artwork also features cherubs and a winged horse, further adding to the whimsical and ethereal nature of the piece.
