Geleerde onder een boom 1719

This small engraving by Gilliam van der Gouwen from 1719 is a title page illustration for the poetry collection "Gedichten" by H. Dullaerts. It depicts a scholar sitting under a tree with a book and a globe, suggesting a scholarly pursuit. The small size of the engraving, 62 mm wide and 50 mm high, contributes to the intimate nature of the scene and reflects the focus on the scholar's concentrated intellectual work. This work can be found at the Rijksmuseum.
