"Putto met een helm in de arm bij een zee-olifant," a 16th century engraving by Adam Fuchs, depicts a winged putto, or cherub, holding a helmet. The putto is situated between a sea-elephant and a sea monster with a serpentine tail. This print, characteristic of Mannerism, highlights the exaggerated form and intricate detail popular during that period. The print is held at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and measures 84mm in height and 136mm in width.
