EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Simon Bosboom (1614-1670), a German architect and sculptor of remarkable talent and versatility. Born in Emden, Bosboom found employment under the Elector of Brandenburg, but his career took an unexpected turn when he traveled to the Netherlands. Bosboom's artistic abilities were not limited to one medium; he excelled in both architecture and sculpture. His architectural designs were characterized by their grandeur and intricacy, reflecting the Baroque style that dominated Europe during the 17th century. His sculptures, on the other hand, were renowned for their lifelike realism and emotional depth. The print captures Bosboom in the prime of his career, with a quill in hand and a thoughtful expression on his face. The intricate details of his clothing and the ornate background suggest the opulence and sophistication of the European courts where he worked. The print also bears the date of 1660, a testament to the historical significance of Bosboom's life and work. Despite his German origins, Bosboom's career was deeply intertwined with the cultural and artistic developments of the Netherlands. His influence can be seen in the grandiose buildings and intricate sculptures that still stand as testaments to the rich artistic heritage of Europe. This print serves as a reminder of Bosboom's enduring legacy and the important role he played in shaping the artistic landscape of his time.
