Twee hemelbedden c. 1583

"Twee hemelbedden" (Two Canopy Beds) is an engraving by Pieter van der Borcht, a Dutch painter and engraver who worked in the late 16th century. This engraving shows two detailed views of a richly decorated canopy bed, one from the top and one from the side. The intricate carvings and architectural features of the bed showcase the luxurious tastes of the wealthy during the period. This engraving is a good example of van der Borcht's skill in depicting architectural details with precision and clarity, reflecting a common practice of this era. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
