"Apollo in his Chariot" is an etching by Dutch artist Albert Flamen, created in 1672. The print depicts the Greek god Apollo, riding in a chariot pulled by two horses across a landscape filled with clouds and a brilliant sun, symbolic of his divine powers. The etching was likely part of a larger series and features a banner at the top reading "Arte Regendus," meaning "to be ruled by art." The print exemplifies Flemish Baroque art, a style characterized by dramatic movement and an emphasis on light and shadow, with a small scale of 84mm high and 66mm wide.
