EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable German table ornament crafted in the late 16th century by Franz Kellerhoven. The intricate piece, made of enamelled and gilt copper, depicts a man carrying a barrel while holding a staff entwined with a vine. The attention to detail is exquisite, as every element from the fruit-laden grapevine to the man's clothing and hat is meticulously portrayed. The chromolithographic print was featured in "The Arts of the Middle Ages and at the Period of the Renaissance" by Paul Lacroix, published in London in 1870. It beautifully captures the vibrant colors and delicate features of this historical masterpiece. The ornament symbolizes both nature's bounty and human labor during harvest time. Its portrayal of grapes being picked evokes images of agriculture and rural life in Germany during that era. The presence of barrels suggests wine production or storage, further emphasizing its connection to viticulture. Franz Kellerhoven's artistic prowess shines through this exceptional creation, showcasing his talent for blending craftsmanship with creativity. This print serves as an invaluable record not only of his work but also as a testament to the cultural heritage preserved within such objects. Through this image, we are transported back to sixteenth-century Germany—a time when artistry flourished alongside agricultural traditions—offering us glimpses into an enchanting past that continues to inspire awe today.
