Twee scènes uit de komedie Adelphoe van Terentius 1716 - 1718

Bernard Picart, a renowned French artist, created this etching, "Twee scènes uit de komedie Adelphoe van Terentius," in 1716-1718. The piece, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts two scenes from the Roman comedy "Adelphoe" by playwright Terence. The left panel showcases a street scene with figures interacting outside a doorway, while the right panel features a more intimate scene involving three men in a room. The detailed etching style and the inclusion of architectural elements like a fountain and a building contribute to the overall visual appeal of the artwork.
