This etching by Melchior Küsel, titled “Personificatie van Ontrouw en Lust,” depicts a female figure, possibly representing infidelity or lust, standing tall in a city square. The figure's pose and expression convey a sense of arrogance and defiance. The detailed cityscape suggests the artist's skill in perspective and architectural rendering. This artwork, created between 1670 and 1682, exemplifies the meticulous style of Baroque etching. It is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam.
