"L'Enfant et le Chien" (The Child and the Dog) is a renowned engraving by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius, who was a leading figure in the Northern Mannerist tradition of the late 16th century. Born in Mühlbracht (now Bracht-am-Niederrhein) in 1558, Goltzius was not only an accomplished painter but also a master printmaker, known for his virtuoso technique and the intricate detail of his works.

The engraving, which dates from around 1590, is a testament to Goltzius's skill in manipulating lines to create texture and depth, a hallmark of his mature style. It depicts a tender scene between a young child and a dog, showcasing the artist's ability to convey emotion and narrative through his work. The exact meaning of the image is open to interpretation, but it is often seen as an allegory of loyalty or innocence.

Goltzius's work is characterized by a combination of classical ideals of beauty and proportion, with an exaggerated elegance that was typical of Mannerism. "L'Enfant et le Chien" exemplifies this blend, featuring elongated figures and a sophisticated use of chiaroscuro to create a three-dimensional effect on a two-dimensional plane.

This engraving is part of a larger body of work by Goltzius that includes mythological scenes, religious subjects, and portraits, all of which demonstrate his innovative approach to printmaking and his influence on the Baroque artists who followed him. "L'Enfant et le Chien" remains an important work within Goltzius's oeuvre, reflecting both his technical prowess and his artistic vision. It is held in high regard by art historians and collectors alike and can be found in various museum collections and as part of scholarly discussions on the evolution of engraving in the history of art.
