About the Item

Two French matted and framed 18th century black and white engravings inspired by Classical Antiquity. The first frame contains an engraving of a woman patting a unicorn, and a man and woman courting with cupid in the background. The second frame depicts a seated woman in four different scenes, demonstrating what appear to be the four allegorical virtues: fortitude, piety, justice and temperance.
