This anonymous print from the 16th century showcases three intricate friezes, each featuring a unique interlacing pattern of floral motifs and geometric shapes. The middle friezes prominently display a mascaron, a decorative element often found in Renaissance architecture, adding a touch of human presence to the otherwise abstract design. The intricate detail and repetitive patterns are characteristic of the decorative arts of the period, showcasing the artist's skill in creating visually stimulating and complex designs for various applications. This print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a valuable example of ornamental art from the 16th century.
