"Een man neemt het lijk van een Romeins speerdrager in de armen" is an etching by Johann Conrad Reiff, a German artist who died in 1726. This 17th-century print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a powerful scene of mourning. The central figures are a man, perhaps a friend or family member, cradling the body of a fallen Roman soldier. The soldier's helmet, shield, and spear lie nearby, emphasizing the solemnity of the moment. The dramatic landscape and the anguished expressions of the figures contribute to the somber atmosphere of the etching.
