This small engraving from 1573 depicts a cartouche, a decorative element often used in Renaissance art to enclose text or images. The cartouche is adorned with intricate scrollwork, adding a sense of ornate elegance to the design. This is a common motif that can be seen in many historical and artistic works. The artist's name is unknown, but the work was likely made as part of a larger book or publication, as evidenced by the inscription "Jacobo Casfaldo Luctore" below the cartouche. This anonymous artwork, currently held at the Rijksmuseum, stands as a testament to the enduring artistry of the 16th century.
