Twee termen dragen een voetstuk met daarop een griffioen c. 1670 - 1685

This anonymous etching, created sometime between 1670 and 1685, is an intricate design featuring a griffin perched on a globe. Two winged figures, possibly representing the four elements of earth, air, fire, and water, hold up the griffin's pedestal. The composition's symmetrical arrangement and intricate details reflect the Baroque period's fondness for ornate and elaborate designs. The use of a griffin, a mythical creature, and a globe suggests a theme of strength, knowledge, and global exploration. This etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the artistic trends of the 17th century.
