Twee putti plaatsen kroon op globe 1791

This anonymous engraving from 1791 depicts two putti, or winged cherubs, placing a crown on top of a globe. It is a small-scale work, measuring only 95 mm in height and 73 mm in width. This engraving likely served as an illustration for a book or periodical, adding visual interest to a text about the arts and sciences. The intricate details of the putti and the globe, as well as the text surrounding the image, contribute to the overall artistic and scholarly value of the piece. This artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable example of the illustrative art of the late 18th century.
