This etching, created by Pieter van den Berge between 1669 and 1737, depicts a portrait of the painter Adriaen van der Werff. The artist is portrayed in an oval frame, held by a seated woman. A cherub, with wings, assists in holding the frame. The scene is set in a landscape, with a palette and brushes at the feet of the woman, symbolizing van der Werff's artistic practice. The artwork is now housed at the Rijksmuseum, a testament to the importance of 17th-century Dutch art.
