EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Miscellany of 17th-century Ornament Print Series: Examples of Antique Chimneypieces, Cabinets, Gueridons, Tables and Mirrors" takes us on a journey back in time to the 17th and 18th centuries. Created by Jan Barend Elwe in 1786 as a sequel to S. Bosboom's work, this exquisite piece showcases the intricate artistry and craftsmanship of that era. The print features an array of beautifully engraved designs depicting various elements of interior decoration such as chimneypieces, cabinets, gueridons (small tables), and mirrors. The attention to detail is remarkable, with each element meticulously etched onto the paper. As we delve into this historical artwork, we are transported to Italy through its depiction of Italian church facades by illustrious architects. The influence of Dutch culture can also be seen in the Dutch lettering accompanying some scenes. With its heraldic blazons and coat of arms adorning certain pieces, this print not only serves as a visual feast but also offers insights into the rich heritage art from the Low Countries during that period. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this print stands as a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of these artistic creations from centuries past. It invites us to appreciate their timeless appeal while marveling at the skillful execution captured within each engraving.
