"Jupiterfontein in de tuin van Villa d'Este te Tivoli," is an etching and engraving by Dutch artist Pieter Schenk (1660-1711) depicting the Jupiter Fountain at the Villa d'Este in Tivoli, Italy. This print was likely created between 1670 and 1717 and is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum. The print depicts a detailed view of the fountain, showcasing its architectural design and surrounding gardens. It is an example of the Dutch baroque style that was prevalent during this period, featuring detailed, realistic figures and a strong emphasis on perspective. This print captures the grandeur and beauty of the Villa d'Este gardens and provides a valuable insight into 17th-century Italian landscape design.
