Schenkkan op voet van drie tritons 1669 - 1693

This etching by Jean Lepautre, dated 1669-1693, depicts a highly ornate silver ewer supported by three tritons. The ewer is decorated with figures in relief, including a scene of Neptune taming a sea horse. The design is characteristic of the Baroque style, which emphasized grandeur and ornamentation. The ewer's intricate details and the dramatic poses of the figures create a sense of dynamism and movement, making it a striking example of Lepautre's artistic mastery. This artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
