This title page for a 1602 edition of the New Testament was designed by Jacob Matham, a Dutch engraver active in the early 17th century. The print is highly ornate, filled with cherubs, allegorical figures, and decorative flourishes. The central text is prominently displayed, and the image likely served as a marketing piece for the book itself. The title page was created in the style of Dutch Mannerism, often characterized by elaborate compositions and decorative elements. It is a fine example of the elaborate title pages created in the Netherlands during the period.
