EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the late 16th century. Created in 1881 by J Brooke, it depicts an etching of a bronze firedog in the form of Jupiter, the Roman god. This exquisite masterpiece was one of a pair crafted between 1570 and 1600 by Giuseppe de Levis in Verona, Italy. Firedogs like this were utilized to support logs burning in open fires during that era. The level of detail and craftsmanship exhibited in this bronze work is truly awe-inspiring. Its ornate design reflects the artistic style prevalent during the Renaissance period. The print originates from "The South Kensington Museum" which was an illustrated book showcasing various works of art housed at the Victoria & Albert Museum (formerly known as the South Kensington Museum) in London.
