"Fontein met zittende figuur" is a 1731 - 1761 etching by French artist Gabriel Huquier. The print depicts a Baroque fountain with a seated figure, framed by an elaborate decorative border. The intricate detail of the architectural elements and foliage suggest a meticulous and skilled hand, characteristic of Huquier's work. The artwork is a fine example of 18th-century Rococo design, displaying the period's fascination with asymmetry and opulent embellishment. This print, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, provides a glimpse into the artistry and design sensibility of the era.
