Letter Q met kind hangend aan stok gedragen door twee kinderen 1522 - 1526

This woodcut, created between 1522 and 1526 by Hans Holbein the Younger, is a masterful example of the artist’s skill in depicting intricate detail and capturing the essence of human form. The artwork depicts the letter “Q” in a decorative style, with a child hanging from a stick carried by two other children. This intricately designed letter likely served as an initial for a larger text, highlighting Holbein's versatility as an artist who excelled in both grand portraits and delicate illustrations. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, providing art lovers with a glimpse into Holbein's remarkable talent for detail and his ability to blend artistic beauty with practical function.
