Titelpagina voor: A. Loosjes, Het leven van Hillegonda Buisman, 1825 1825

This title page engraving by Jacob Ernst Marcus, created in 1825, is a delicate illustration for the second edition of A. Loosjes’ biography of Hillegonda Buisman. The design features an open book, an oil lamp, and a beehive, all placed in front of a stone pillar with a hand on the surface. The title page is housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. The engraving's classical elements and symbolic imagery are characteristic of the Neoclassical style popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
