"Jonge mannen en vrouwen dansen rond het standbeeld van Apollo" (Young men and women dance around the statue of Apollo) is an etching by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, created in 1794. The small-scale print features a group of figures in classical dress dancing around a statue of Apollo, who sits atop a pedestal and holds a lyre. The scene is set in a landscape with trees, indicating the influence of classical art and mythology on the artist. This small, detailed print provides an interesting look at the Neoclassical style that was popular in the late 18th century.
