"Fysica" (1528-1583) is an engraving by French artist Etienne Delaune (1518-1583) depicting a female figure holding a flask, surrounded by fantastical flora and fauna. Delaune, known for his intricate and decorative designs, showcases his mastery of line and detail in this small-scale work (81 x 64 mm). This engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is an excellent example of Delaune's characteristic style, which blends naturalism with imaginative elements, creating a sense of wonder and mystery.
