This 1612 etching by Antonio Tempesta, titled "Gonzalo Gusto gives a ring that should be given to his unborn child if it is a son," depicts a scene from the Spanish Golden Age novel *Lazarillo de Tormes*. In this scene, the titular Lazarillo's father is given permission by King Almanzor to return home to his pregnant wife. Tempesta's dynamic composition features a lively, detailed depiction of horses, riders, and figures as they converse and travel through the bustling city streets.
