This etching, "Twee schenkkannen" (Two Pitchers), was created by the French artist Jean Lepautre, before 1718. The intricate design depicts two ornate pitchers, likely for wine or water, placed on a ledge in a classical setting. The richly detailed ornamentation of the pitchers, along with the figures in the background, creates a sense of grandeur and elegance. This print is a fine example of Lepautre's skill in capturing the beauty of decorative arts. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this piece is a testament to the artist's talent for etching and his fascination with decorative objects.
