EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Latin title-page from the 1701 edition, dating back to the late 17th century. The hand-coloured engraving, created by an anonymous Dutch artist, measures 39.5x26 cm and is part of a private collection. The title-page originates from the renowned book "Horti medici Amstelodamensis rariorum plantarum. . . descriptio et icones" authored by Jan Commelin and Caspar Commelin. Published in Amsterdam between 1697-1701, this exquisite piece exemplifies the artistic brilliance of Dutch School during that era. In this image, we witness a large group of people gathered outdoors as they engage in an educational lesson led by a mature man. Surrounding him are women and men alike, all attentively listening while he explains various aspects of artistry. The scene exudes creativity and intellectual curiosity. Notably, the hand-colouring technique employed on this engraving adds depth and vibrancy to its composition. The bearded figure stands confidently amidst his audience, holding their attention with his expertise. His posture reflects both wisdom and passion for his craft. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we appreciate how it captures not only the beauty of Dutch art but also highlights the importance placed on knowledge-sharing during that time period. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by these talented artists who continue to inspire us today.
