This 17th-century sketchbook by Flemish artist Paul de Vos, spanning from 1605 to 1678, offers a glimpse into the creative process of a master painter. Though the sketchbook itself is not a finished artwork, it reveals de Vos's preliminary studies and sketches, likely for larger paintings. The weathered cover, with its visible stitching and brown spots, adds an intriguing historical layer to this unique piece. The dimensions of the sketchbook are 323 mm x 213 mm x 23 mm x 428 mm. This object is an important artifact for understanding the development of de Vos's artistic style and his use of preparatory drawings.
