The Invasion of the Frogs

About this work

In this engraving, a group of people are gathered around a table, while others are shown in the background, running away from frogs. The scene is set in a classical-style building with columns and arches. The people are dressed in ancient Greek or Roman attire. The engraving is densely detailed, with intricate cross-hatching used to create texture and depth. The frogs are shown in various poses, some jumping and others sitting on the ground. This engraving is a great example of Renaissance art, and if you're interested in learning more, you should check out the works of Sadeler I, Jan.
