This is a print by Flemish artist Hubert Quellinus, created between 1655 and 1665, which depicts a lunette design featuring two cherubs supporting fish flanking a circular frame. The design includes cornucopias, fruit and foliage, adding a sense of abundance and prosperity. The print, held in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Baroque art, with its elaborate details and dynamic composition. It is a striking illustration of Quellinus’s talent for incorporating classical elements and symbolism into his works.
