About this work
A decorative composition consisting of three panels. On the left two sphinxes carrying two platforms, each with a squirrel. Above them a medallion with a portrait. In the center a herm with a basket of fruit and leaves on her head under a canopy. Below two masks, an angel blowing a trumpet, and two griffins. On the right a medallion with a portrait in profile with a laurel wreath and below an angel with a palm branch. Print is part of an album. Most likely a mirrored copy after a French original.
