"Titelvignet til C.Bastholm: "Aandelige Taler", 1779" is an etching by Danish artist J.F. Clemens, created in 1779. The artwork is a title vignette, designed to be a decorative element for a book of religious sermons. It depicts an open book bathed in radiant light, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and the power of scripture. This artwork is an example of Neoclassicism, a style that valued reason, order, and balance, reflecting the intellectual currents of the Enlightenment. The simple composition and meticulous detail are characteristic of Clemens's work.
