EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and mesmerizing design of the central section of "The Mirror of Virtue" by Cornelis Ketel. Created in 1594, this Dutch masterpiece is a testament to Ketel's exceptional talent and artistic vision. In this particular section, we are drawn into a world where virtue takes center stage. The delicate pen strokes and brown ink bring to life an array of virtuous figures, each exuding grace and nobility. The artist's use of brown wash adds depth and dimension to the composition, while touches of white heighten certain areas, creating a subtle play between light and shadow. Measuring at 25.8 × 21.7 cm (10 3/16 × 8 9/16 in. ), this print captures every intricate detail with precision and clarity. It allows us to appreciate Ketel's meticulous attention to detail as he brings forth an allegorical representation of virtue through his artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to the Netherlands during the late sixteenth century. We can almost feel the air filled with inspiration as Ketel skillfully crafts his vision onto paper. Whether displayed on its own or as part of a larger collection, this print serves as a timeless reminder that art has the power to inspire virtue within us all.
