Title Page 

This is a title page from a book by the French engraver and goldsmith Etienne Delaune, who was active during the 16th century. The title page features a central oval medallion with the inscription "Steph. Hanvs. De Lavne. Inventor Excidebat Anno D. 1573. In. Argen. Tina." This likely indicates the date the book was published. The image is a classic example of Mannerist art, characterized by its exaggerated forms and intricate details. The elaborate border features grotesques, a popular motif in 16th-century European art, as well as scrolling vines and leaves. The title page is a testament to Delaune’s mastery of engraving and his ability to create visually stunning and intricate designs.
