"The Seven Liberal Arts" is a renowned engraving by the German artist Hans Sebald Beham, created in 1539 during the Northern Renaissance. This work of art is a visual representation of the traditional medieval concept of the liberal arts, which were considered the essential areas of study for a free person. The liberal arts were divided into the Trivium, consisting of grammar, rhetoric, and logic, and the Quadrivium, comprising arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy.

In Beham's engraving, each of the seven liberal arts is personified by a female figure, each accompanied by distinctive attributes or symbols that represent their respective disciplines. The artwork is a testament to the cultural and educational ideals of the Renaissance period, where a revival of classical learning and values was prominent. Beham's intricate and allegorical portrayal not only reflects the intellectual pursuits of the time but also serves as an artistic celebration of knowledge and learning.
