EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Staphae, Sive Stapedes" is a remarkable piece from the renowned series Nova Reperta. Engraved by Philip Galle between 1580 and 1605, it beautifully captures an important moment in history. The image depicts the introduction of stirrups into Western Europe during the 7th century. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jan van der Straet, also known as Giovanni Stradano. His intricate design showcases his talent for capturing historical events with great detail and accuracy. This particular plate celebrates the inventions and developments of the new age. In this scene, we witness a pivotal moment in equestrian history as a skilled stirrup maker presents his creation to a potential buyer. The stall horse stands patiently nearby as both men engage in conversation about this groundbreaking invention that would revolutionize horse riding forever. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, with every element meticulously crafted to convey realism and depth. From the finely engraved details on the saddle to the subtle expressions on their faces, each aspect contributes to creating an immersive experience for viewers. As we admire this extraordinary artwork, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance.
