EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 17th century with this exquisite copper engraving of Princess of Orange Mary, created by renowned artist Cornelis Visscher in 1650. This stunning portrait showcases the young princess as a child, adorned with intricate details such as pearl necklaces and ornate jewelry. The delicate curls framing her face and fringe at the occiput add a touch of sweetness to her already captivating expression.
The engraving is based on a painting by Gerrit van Honthorst, which was then reworked by John Brouwer to create this beautiful copper plate. The result is a masterpiece that exudes elegance and refinement. Notice the clever use of Latin legend and painter's title within the oval frame, adding an air of sophistication to the overall design.
This print not only captures the likeness of Princess Mary but also reflects the artistic skill and attention to detail characteristic of Dutch Golden Age artistry. It's no wonder that this piece has been preserved for centuries, serving as a testament to the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of its creators.
