Arabesken en vrouw met snaarinstrument 1810

This 1810 engraving by Laurent Guyot is a design for a decorative panel, part of a series called "Arabesques." The design features a central motif of a woman playing a string instrument, surrounded by elaborate foliage, cherubs, and a pair of deer. The intricate details and use of ornamentation are characteristic of the Rococo style, which was popular in France during the 18th century. This design would have been used to adorn furniture, walls, or other decorative objects, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to interiors. "Arabesken en vrouw met snaarinstrument" (Dutch for "Arabesques and woman with string instrument") is a decorative print for the interior of a grand house.
