"Phineus verstoort de bruiloft van Perseus en Andromeda" is an etching created by French artist Jean Lepautre in the late 17th century. This scene depicts the Greek mythological story of Perseus and Andromeda, their wedding is interrupted by the vengeful Phineus. The image is detailed and uses strong contrast, characteristic of Lepautre’s style. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a classic example of Baroque artistic techniques.
