"Mars doemt op bij op het land werkende putti" is an etching by Dutch artist Simon Fokke. Created between 1722 and 1783, the piece depicts a scene of putti (cherubs) working in a field, while a figure of Mars, the Roman god of war, looms in the background. Fokke’s use of fine lines and cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and detail, capturing the energy of the scene. The artwork is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
