The Alchemist at the Furnace, after David Teniers the Younger
An etching of an elderly bearded alchemist in a cap, seated beside a stone furnace and working a bellows in a cluttered laboratory. Shelves of jars, flasks, books and a second figure at a table fill the room, rendered in fine hatched lines with dramatic light.
