This is a dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici from the *Les Caprices* series A, *The Florence Set*. Created anonymously sometime between 1620 and 1700, the print features a text written in Italian. The work highlights a dedication from the anonymous artist to the Medici family, likely the powerful ruling family of Florence, and includes a signature in the lower right corner. This type of artistic creation, a dedication through text, was a common form of expression during this period, offering insight into the values and relationships of the time. The artwork, currently held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is a small, but historically significant, example of a dedicated work.
