Reproductie van twee prenten van vazen door Hieronymus Cock naar Vredeman de Vries before 1881

This anonymous reproduction of two prints of vases by Vredeman de Vries, engraved by Hieronymus Cock, is an example of 16th century printmaking and design. The intricate engravings, likely made for a book of designs, display the ornate details and decorative motifs popular in the Renaissance era. The vases themselves exhibit classical elements, with fluted bodies and decorative handles, showcasing the enduring influence of ancient Roman art in European design. The prints offer a glimpse into the world of early modern decorative arts and the techniques used to reproduce and disseminate design ideas.
