Allegorie op de tijd 1628 - 1689

Conrad Meyer's "Allegorie op de tijd" (1628-1689) is a complex allegorical print depicting the passage of time. A winged figure, likely representing Father Time, rides a chariot pulled by stags through a swirling landscape. The image is filled with symbolic objects and imagery representing the fleeting nature of time and the inevitability of death. The print is characterized by its intricate detail and use of light and shadow, typical of Dutch Baroque art. It's now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, measuring 185 mm high and 290 mm wide.
