This 1584 engraving, created by an anonymous artist, is a circular cartouche with two grotesque satyr heads and a profusion of fruit. The artwork uses an intricate, symmetrical design, adorned with vines and flowers, to frame a central circular inscription. The cartouche's elaborate and detailed ornamentation, including the satyr heads and fruit, creates a sense of whimsy and visual interest. The inscription adds a layer of intellectualism and historical significance to the composition, enhancing its overall appeal. This piece exemplifies the use of decorative elements and the prevailing fashion of the time in the art of printmaking.
