EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Hunting Sea Creatures" takes us on a thrilling adventure into the depths of the ocean. Created by Jan van der Straet (Joannes Stradanus) and engraved by Jan Collaert, this illustration is part of the renowned series Venationes, Ferarum, Avium, Piscium (Of Hunting: Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish). In plate 84 of this magnificent collection, we are transported to a scene where fishermen bravely battle against monstrous sea creatures. A majestic galleon sails in the background as waves crash around it. The sailors cast their nets and fishing lines into the treacherous waters below. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every scale on these mythical creatures glimmers with life. Serpents twist and turn amidst schools of fish while menacingly eyeing their prey. It is an awe-inspiring display of nature's power and beauty. This 17th-century masterpiece not only showcases the artistry of its time but also captures humanity's eternal fascination with hunting and fishing. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we can't help but be drawn into its narrative - a tale that combines bravery, danger, and our unyielding quest for exploration. Let this artwork transport you to a world where man battles against mighty sea monsters in search of sustenance or perhaps even glory. Immerse yourself in the intricate details that bring this scene to life – from the intricately engraved ship to each creature lurking beneath the surface – all captured within this extraordinary piece from Bridgeman Images' archives.
