Collection of Various Caprices and New Designs of Cartouches and Ornaments: No 17
The image shows an etched design on a light-colored background. Two nude children, or putti, each hold a long, curved decorative element on either side. The putti are posed on their knees with their heads turned towards the center. A goat-like creature with large horns is centered at the top. The putti and creature appear to be supporting a wavy, leafy cartouche or frame. The frame includes a signature and text at the bottom. The image is bordered by a thin line, and numbers are written in the top corners of the image within the border. The image is mounted on a larger, off-white background.
