"Allegorische voorstelling met putti en buste van C.F. Gellert" is an engraving by Reinier Vinkeles from 1785. This delicate work depicts a scene with putti (winged cherubs), and a bust of the German writer Christian Fürchtegott Gellert. The engraving likely served as a frontispiece for a book of Gellert’s fables and stories. Vinkeles, a Dutch engraver known for his intricate detail and precise lines, captures the playful spirit of the putti and the dignified presence of Gellert’s bust. This artwork provides insight into the artistic style of the late 18th century and the appreciation for literature of the period.
