Cartouche met een tekst uit het Bijbelboek Jakobus 1555

This 1555 print by Flemish artist Frans Huys features an elaborate cartouche, a decorative frame, embellished with scrolling foliage and the faces of cherubs. The central panel displays an inscription in Latin, a quote from the Book of James in the Bible, emphasizing wisdom and good deeds. This intricate design, characteristic of Huys' work, showcases the craftsmanship and decorative tendencies of 16th-century art. The print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the influence of humanist ideas on artistic expression during this period.
