"Janus en Juno / Neptunus op zijn wagen" is a pair of engravings by Valentin Lefebvre, a French artist who lived from 1642-1682. These prints, created in 1682, depict two Roman deities: Janus, the god of beginnings, and Juno, the goddess of marriage, as well as Neptune, the god of the sea, in his chariot drawn by sea-horses. The images are rendered in a highly detailed and realistic style characteristic of Lefebvre's work. Each scene is enclosed within an oval frame, adding to the sense of classical elegance and precision. The engravings are small in size, measuring approximately 302 mm in height and 147 mm in width, and are likely intended for personal viewing and appreciation.
