This etching by Dutch artist Bernard Picart depicts two scenes from the Roman playwright Terence's comedy *Andria*, created in 1715. The artwork shows a group of figures in a city square and one standing alone in a street. Picart's style is known for its detailed depiction of ancient Roman dress and architecture, which allows viewers to see the play come to life in a historically accurate way. The etching's small size allows for easy viewing and makes it suitable for collectors and art enthusiasts. This is a rare example of an artwork based on a classical Roman play.
