Mars

About this work

This print shows a bearded man in armor holding a spear and a bundle of arrows. He wears a helmet with a plume and stands next to a ram’s head. Behind him, a small figure lies on the ground, and a building with columns is visible. The word "MARS" is written at the top, and the year "1569" is stamped in the corner. This suggests the man is the Roman god of war. Look up etching to see how artists like Bruyn made prints like this.
