Putti and Coat of Arms n.d.

Gerard de Lairesse's "Putti and Coat of Arms" (n.d.) is a detailed pen and brown wash drawing. The work features five cherubic figures amidst clouds, with three of them interacting with a central heraldic shield depicting a crowned eagle. Two of the putti hold a crown and a cornucopia, while another plays a trumpet. This drawing likely functioned as a preliminary study for a larger, more elaborate work. The work exemplifies the Baroque style's characteristic dynamism and exuberance in portraying a playful scene of cherubic figures surrounding a coat of arms.
