"Huon de Bordeaux en Gérasme in gesprek met de feeënkoning Oberon" is an etching created in 1782 by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki. This artwork depicts two scenes from the medieval romance "Huon de Bordeaux" and shows Huon and his companions in conversation with King Oberon, the king of the fairies. Chodowiecki, a prominent German artist known for his illustrations, skillfully captures the fantastical atmosphere of the story through intricate details and subtle shading. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Chodowiecki's talent for bringing literary narratives to life in a visually compelling manner.
