Gehelmde man in een wapenrok, leunend op een stok 1572 - 1589

This small, oval-shaped etching, "Gehelmde man in een wapenrok, leunend op een stok," depicts a heavily armed man with a beard, standing in a landscape. Created by Jonas Silber in 1572-1589, the artwork showcases the artist's skill in rendering fine detail, particularly in the figure's armor and the surrounding buildings. Silber, a short-lived artist, died at the young age of 18, and this etching exemplifies his talent for capturing the intricate details of Renaissance-era figures and landscapes. The work's small dimensions, 66 mm in height and 42 mm in width, make it an intimate and personal piece.
