Sull’opera
This tiny etching features a goldsmith hammering away in his workshop, with his tools at the left, an anvil at the right, and a small fire in the forge behind him. His arm is wrapped tenderly around a statuette with which he will soon have to part. The mother, symbolizing Charity, holds her two children just as lovingly.
