About this work

Aert Schouman probably learned the art of stipple engraving from Frans Greenwood. An engraver and painter by profession, Schouman was able to create exceptionally fine scenes, which he based on his own designs rather than prints by others. The man on this glass is holding a wine jug. In the same year Schouman also engraved a glass with the motif of a man eating.
