Christoph Krieger's "Gioventu antica" is a 1598 woodcut depicting a young man in period clothing. The central figure is positioned against a decorative frame with intricate flourishes and a cherub at the bottom. This woodcut, a popular form of printmaking in the 16th century, is a detailed illustration of attire and fashion during that time period. Krieger's skillful rendering of the figure and the decorative frame showcases his artistic talent.
