This is an etching or engraving that depicts a scene from classical mythology. The central figures appear to be Orpheus, identifiable by his ancient Greek attire and the lyre he carries, and Eurydice, who seems to be recoiling or being drawn away from him. The text below suggests that this is the moment where Eurydice is being taken back to the Underworld ("ad inferos revocatur" translates to "is called back to the underworld"), a tragic point in the myth where Orpheus, having secured Eurydice's release from the Underworld on the condition that he not look back at her until they reach the upper world, succumbs to his doubt and turns to see her, thus losing her forever.
Around them are figures that could be the denizens of the Underworld, depicted as fantastical creatures, some of which resemble Furies (mythological creatures of vengeance). The setting is dark and foreboding, consistent with the depiction of the Underworld. The art style is typical of classical etchings, with intricate line work and attention to detail.

This image appears to be an etching that depicts the mythological story of Orpheus and Eurydice. In the foreground, Orpheus, dressed in classical Greco-Roman attire, is holding a lyre and looking back at Eurydice. Orpheus seems to be leading Eurydice out of the Underworld, but she is being pulled back by monstrous creatures. Eurydice's expression and body language convey a sense of desperation as she reaches out towards Orpheus.
In the background, three-headed creatures that resemble Cerberus, the mythical guard dog of the underworld, are visible. The scene is set in a cave or underworld environment.
The inscription at the bottom reads "Eurídice (respiciente Orpheo) ad inferos revocatur," which translates from Latin to "Eurydice (looking back at Orpheus) is called back to the inferno." This references the moment in the myth where Orpheus looks back at Eurydice before they have fully left the underworld, causing her to be taken back by the underworld’s denizens.

This is a classical etching depicting the tragic mythological scene of Eurydice being pulled back to the underworld after Orpheus looked back at her against divine instructions. The artwork shows a dramatic moment with several figures in motion - one figure is being dragged downward while another reaches upward in despair. A third figure stands with a staff or instrument. The scene includes mythological creatures and demons, including what appears to be a serpent-like beast. The composition uses strong diagonal lines and cross-hatching techniques typical of classical etchings. At the bottom of the image is a Latin inscription that reads "Euridice (respiciente Orpheo) ad inferos revocatur" which refers to Eurydice being recalled to the underworld when Orpheus looked back. The style and execution suggest this is from a series of classical mythological illustrations, likely from the Renaissance or Baroque period.
