Kan met een oor in de vorm van een sater die staat op een mascaron 1533 - 1567

Enea Vico created this print of a ewer at an unknown date with etching. The stark contrast of the monochrome medium immediately draws attention to the elaborate ornamentation and complex symmetry of the object. A satyr with a shell supports the ewer's opening. The ewer is adorned with mascarons, figures, shells, and dolphins. The base features swirling flutes that add texture and rhythm, which contrast with the smooth background, and accentuate the ewer's form. The design is divided into distinct registers, each featuring different motifs, creating a hierarchical visual structure. The use of classical motifs and forms reflects an engagement with the antique. Each element and its placement contributes to a complex interplay of form and meaning. The ewer becomes a study in ornamental language, inviting contemplation of how symbols communicate cultural values and artistic ideals. The print invites ongoing interpretation and appreciation.
