Twelve Children Dancing is a 1517 ink by Domenico Campagnola, a Renaissance work, depicting Putti, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a group of kids dancing in a circle. They're all smiling and having fun. The artist made this scene look lively by using simple lines. The kids are all dressed in nice clothes, which suggests they're from a wealthy family. This detail is interesting because it gives us a glimpse into the lives of rich people back then. Check out the work of artist Campagnola, Domenico.
