This etching by Italian Baroque artist Salvator Rosa, from his "Figurine" series, depicts two warriors in a moment of intense interaction. The seated figure in the foreground holds a war hammer, while the figure behind him, seated on the ground, holds a mace across his shoulder. The detailed rendering of the figures and their weaponry underscores the powerful presence of these men. This piece is a testament to Rosa's skillful use of line and his fascination with the dramatic and theatrical.
