Losse fragmenten van een prent van het oordeel van Paris 1580 - 1596

This print by Zacharias Dolendo is a fragmented piece of a larger work, believed to have been created between 1580 and 1596. The three surviving fragments depict the Judgment of Paris, a famous scene from Greek mythology where Paris is tasked with choosing the most beautiful goddess. The print's condition adds to its artistic value, reflecting the passage of time and the fragility of art. The Rijksmuseum houses this piece, which demonstrates the use of etching and engraving techniques popular during Dolendo's lifetime. This artwork offers a unique perspective on the Judgment of Paris through its incomplete form, inviting viewers to imagine the complete original.
