Hendrick Goltzius's "Golden Age" is a large-scale engraving created in 1589. The image depicts a pastoral scene, with a group of figures gathered in a lush landscape filled with animals, plants, and classical architecture.

In the center of the image, a group of four figures is shown dancing in a circle, with a musician playing a lute nearby. The figures are dressed in classical clothing and are surrounded by animals, including a lion, a bear, and a peacock. In the background, a classical temple is visible, with a river flowing through the landscape.

The image is highly detailed, with intricate lines and shading that create a sense of depth and texture in the scene. The figures are naturalistic and expressive, with dynamic poses and gestures that convey a sense of movement and energy.

"Golden Age" is part of a series of four engravings that depict different ages of mankind, from the biblical "Creation of the World" to the "Iron Age" of strife and conflict. The series was highly regarded by collectors and artists of the time, and it remains an important example of Dutch engraving from the late 16th century.

Goltzius was known for his technical mastery of engraving, and "Golden Age" is considered one of his most beautiful and complex works. The image reflects the ideals of the Renaissance, with its celebration of classical art and culture and its emphasis on the beauty and harmony of the natural world.
