An anonymous artist created this etching of a chaise longue titled *Bank met rookvat* ("Bench with incense burner") in the 18th century. The elaborate design features a curved, ornately carved wooden frame, a floral patterned upholstery, and a unique incense burner on the back. The print is a good example of the Rococo style, which was popular in Europe during this time and is known for its asymmetry, playful curves, and decorative elements. The inclusion of an incense burner suggests the piece was intended for a luxurious and sophisticated setting. The print is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
