Jacob de Wit

Cleveland Museum of Art

A drawing of a female bust on a pedestal surrounded by four cherubs. The bust is of a woman with short hair and a neutral expression. The pedestal is rectangular with a curved top and has some indistinguishable markings on the front. Three cherubs are on either side of the pedestal and one is on the ground near the bottom. The cherub on the left is holding a bow. The cherub on the right is holding a long spear or pole with a bow and quiver hanging from it. The cherub on the right also holds a bunch of sticks or arrows in one hand. The cherub on the ground near the bottom appears to be picking up a bow or a similar object. There are leaves drawn near the top of the image. The drawing is done in shades of brown on a beige background. The drawing has an arched top. The drawing is signed in the bottom-left corner.
