"Twee putti bij een plant in pot" is an etching created by the Italian artist Pietro Antonio Cotta between 1675 and 1685. The artwork depicts two cherubs supporting a potted plant with their feet. The cherubs are depicted in a naturalistic style, with their bodies contorted in a dynamic pose. The intricate detail of the plant, particularly the leaves and flowers, highlights Cotta's skilled use of etching to capture depth and texture. This etching, now held in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artist's mastery of the medium and the classical themes popular in 17th-century European art.
