EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate title page of J. de Bisschop's Paradigmata graphices variorum artificum, dating back to the 17th or 18th century. The focal point is a beautifully sculpted bust of Jan de Bisschop himself, resting atop an ancient sarcophagus. Hovering above is Faam, the trumpet-blowing messenger of fame, accompanied by the symbol of eternity - a snake biting its own tail. To the left of the bust stands Historia, personifying history itself. She holds a writing spring and an open book in her hands, representing knowledge and wisdom passed down through time. On the right side stands Drawing personified, clutching a drawing as she presides over her realm. At their feet are playful putti engrossed in studying various objects such as books and sculptures. The composition also includes symbolic representations like Fame (Fama), Good Reputation (Fama Buona), Clear Reputation (Fama Chiara), alluding to De Bisschop's artistic achievements and recognition within his field. This etching on paper measures approximately 229 mm in height and 153 mm in width. This remarkable piece not only pays homage to Jan de Bisschop but also encapsulates key elements associated with artistry, history, fame, and creativity during that era. It serves as both a visual delight for admirers of fine prints and an intriguing glimpse into the symbolism prevalent in classical artwork
