"Circle of Theives: Agnello Brunelleschi Attacked By a Six-Footed Serpent" is a dramatic and detailed engraving by William Blake, a renowned English artist and poet. Created between 1820 and 1832, the print depicts a scene of a six-legged serpent attacking a man while two other figures, likely representing Adam and Eve, watch in horror. The work is a powerful representation of Blake's own interpretations of the Bible, with a blend of realistic and fantastical elements that have captivated audiences since its creation. The work, located at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a testament to Blake's unique and enduring artistic vision.
