Spring is a 1701 ink by Joseph Sebastian Klauber, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This scene shows a busy garden with fancy stone arches and statues. A half-naked man kneels by a woman in red robes, while workers tend to plants and fountains. Above them, cherubs float in the sky, and a dramatic tree frames the right side. The tiny figures and swirling clouds give it a dreamy, crowded feel—like a stage set. The artist used a mix of light and dark to make everything pop. Look up etching to see how artists like this carved their designs into metal.
