"Ornamentele titelpagina met Minerva en Ceres" is a 1606 engraving by Zacharias Dolendo. This title page features Minerva and Ceres, representing wisdom and abundance, respectively, set within an elaborate decorative border. The image is likely meant to represent the book's content, which is a collection of stories about virtuous women. It's a fine example of the detailed and ornate engraving style popular in the Netherlands during the Renaissance. The work is a testament to Dolendo's skill, even though he sadly passed away in 1604, two years before the engraving was printed. Today, the artwork is located at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
