Jupiter Taking Counsel from the Gods about the Destruction of the Universe

The engraving showcases meticulous craftsmanship through dense fine lines and cross-hatching, which imbues the clouds with depth and the figures with a radiant, detailed presence. The crowded yet controlled composition reflects a characteristic attention to detail.
