Losse fragmenten van een prent van de verzoening van Jakob en Esau 1580 - 1596

"Losse fragmenten van een prent van de verzoening van Jakob en Esau" is a set of six small, fragmented prints by Zacharias Dolendo. These prints, likely created between 1580 and 1596, are now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum. Each fragment depicts a portion of a larger print, likely depicting the biblical story of Jacob and Esau's reconciliation. Dolendo's work, which is known for its detailed and expressive style, is rarely found in such a fragmented state. This artwork offers insight into the techniques and artistic practices of the period, particularly the process of printmaking, which often involved collaboration and the use of multiple prints to achieve a complete image.
