Album met voorstellingen van dieren 1581 - 1600

This 16th-century drawing, "Album met voorstellingen van dieren," is a blank page from an album filled with depictions of animals. Created by an anonymous artist, this page features a textured, mottled background, reminiscent of a rough, weathered surface, providing a visual contrast to the stark white rectangle in the center. The rectangle, appearing to be a cut-out piece of paper, emphasizes the page's potential for future artistic endeavors, suggesting a blank canvas awaiting the artist's touch. The drawing's minimalist style and its focus on texture offer a glimpse into the artistic practices of its time.
