Reliëf met Amphion en Zethos in de Burgerzaal van het Stadhuis op de Dam 1663 - 1783

This etching, titled "Reliëf met Amphion en Zethos in de Burgerzaal van het Stadhuis op de Dam," was created by Flemish artist Hubert Quellinus in the 17th century. The artwork depicts the mythological Greek brothers Amphion and Zethus, who were said to have built the walls of Thebes with music. Amphion, playing the lyre, sits on a stone block while his brother Zethus stands next to him, guiding the construction. The etching captures the movement of the scene as Amphion plays his music, bringing the stones to life and building the walls of Thebes.
