Landschap met de zelfmoord van Thisbe c. 1567 - 1571

"Landschap met de zelfmoord van Thisbe" (c. 1567-1571) is an engraving by Philips Galle, depicting a scene from the ancient Greek myth of Pyramus and Thisbe. The print depicts a sprawling landscape with a city in the distance, a river, a bridge, and a rocky outcropping where Thisbe, distraught after finding Pyramus's body, takes her own life. The work is a striking example of Galle's masterful skill in depicting intricate detail and atmospheric depth.
