Apen, planten en vruchten rond de tekens van de zodiac 1592 - 1726

"Apen, planten en vruchten rond de tekens van de zodiac" is an engraved print by Jacob Hoefnagel, dating back to the early 17th century. The artwork features a complex composition with a central circular zodiac wheel surrounded by monkeys, plants, fruits, and insects. The print is part of a larger series, "Archetypa Studiaque Patris Georgii Hoefnagelii," which highlights Hoefnagel's meticulous observation of nature. The detail and intricacy of the design, typical of his work, make it a standout example of 17th-century naturalism.
