Stamboom met harnas en landschap 1654

Johann Pfann's "Stamboom met harnas en landschap," created in 1654, depicts a genealogical tree. The central figure, clad in armor, stands amidst a landscape of hills and a distant cityscape. The tree is adorned with coats of arms, symbolizing the lineage of the family, possibly the "Philippi Anip" referenced in the inscription. The artwork's intricate details and symbolic elements exemplify the visual language of 17th-century genealogical art, with the combination of imagery and text illustrating familial heritage and the continuation of a legacy. The artwork is a visual testament to the importance of family history and lineage during this period.
