EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the hand-coloured woodcut titled "Agrippina of Coellen (Cologne), 1499" by the German School from the 15th century. Measuring 30.4x20.5 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection and depicts Agrippina of Coellen, a significant figure in Cologne's history. Originally published in Cologne by Johann Koelhoff the younger, this woodcut comes from "Die Cronica van der hilliger Stat van Coellen". The image portrays Agrippina sailing on a boat along the river, with an elevated view of the city's buildings and landmarks in the background. The artist skillfully employs hand colouring to bring life to this historical piece. The vibrant hues beautifully enhance every detail, from foliage to sailboats and architectural elements. This technique adds depth and dimension to the scene while capturing both natural spaces and urban environments. The late 15th-century woodcut demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship as it captures Agrippina's journey across the river with precision and finesse. With its diminishing perspective and receding views, viewers are transported back in time to witness this momentous event firsthand. This remarkable print offers a glimpse into German art during that period while showcasing European artistic talent at its finest. Its intricate details make it an exquisite addition to any fine art collection or exhibition space where visitors can appreciate its beauty up close.
