This etching, titled "Element water als kind met vishengel leunend op kruik waar water uitstroomt bij oever in ovaal", created between 1648 and 1664 by Cornelis van (II) Dalen, depicts a cherubic figure pouring water from a jug into a river. The image is set within an oval frame, adding a classical feel to the composition. The figure's relaxed pose and gentle expression suggest the peaceful and essential nature of water. This engraving is a fine example of Dutch Baroque art, showcasing the use of light and shadow to create depth and dimension.
