Lozenge-shaped Pendant and Two Triangular Motifs in a Riverscape 1622

This etching by Giovanni Battista Costantini, titled "Lozenge-shaped Pendant and Two Triangular Motifs in a Riverscape", showcases a striking example of ornamental design typical of the early 17th century. The central lozenge-shaped motif, flanked by two triangular designs, is adorned with intricate curvilinear patterns. The dynamic arrangement of these motifs, set against a tranquil riverscape, hints at the artist's masterful command of both geometrical and organic forms. The artwork, created in 1622, exemplifies the intricate ornamentation and decorative sensibilities of the Baroque period.
