This is a black and white etching by the Dutch artist Noël Le Mire depicting a seated nude figure, likely representing a muse or allegory. The image is part of a larger print series titled "Il Decamerone di M. Giovanni Boccaccio". The artwork is a classic example of 18th-century neoclassical style, characterized by its focus on idealized forms and a return to classical themes and aesthetics. The print features the date "1757", marking the year the artwork was created, and adds context to this historical style. The image is on display at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and is an excellent representation of Le Mire's skills as a printmaker.
