Naiade 1793 - 1838

"Naiade" is an engraving by Angelo Bertini, created between 1793 and 1838. The piece depicts a reclining female figure, possibly a nymph or naiad, with a cherub playing a lyre at her feet. The engraving is a testament to Bertini's skills in capturing the delicate details and graceful forms of the human figure, reflecting the neoclassical style popular during his time. The artwork serves as a visual representation of the artistic themes of beauty, love, and the idealized human form prevalent in 19th century art.
