EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing engraving titled "C - Cain holding a jaw bone above his head" from the Alphabet series by T. de Bry, dating back to 1880. The artwork measures 27x18.5 cm and is part of a private collection. The Alphabet series was a 28-page booklet edited by G. Pierson et Cie in Paris, featuring letters created by Theodore de Bry and his son Jean Theodore de Bry. Theodore de Bry was a multi-talented artist known for his skills as a drawer, engraver, printer, bookseller, and more. In this particular engraving, we see the biblical character Cain depicted with great intensity as he holds a jaw bone triumphantly above his head. The intricate details engraved by Charles Gillot bring this scene to life and highlight the artistic mastery of both De Bry and Gillot. The image transports us back to the 16th century when De Bry lived and worked. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of art to capture historical moments with precision and emotion. This remarkable print captures not only the beauty of De Bry's work but also its historical significance within the context of 16th-century artistry. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder's collection ensures that it will be appreciated for generations to come.
