EDITORS COMMENTS
This copperplate engraving showcases the distinguished figure of Alessandro Farnese, the 3rd Duke of Parma. Born in 1546, he was not only a prominent member of Italian nobility but also held significant connections to Spanish royalty as the nephew of Philip II, King of Spain from 1556. Serving as Governor-General of the Spanish Netherlands from 1578, Farnese's influence extended far beyond his familial ties. The masterful craftsmanship by Dutch printmaker Crispian van de Passe the Elder is evident in this exquisite portrait. With intricate details and delicate lines, van de Passe captures Farnese's regal presence and commanding gaze. The richness and depth achieved through copperplate engraving lend an air of grandeur to this historical depiction. As we admire this remarkable print, it is important to note that it originates from Universal Images Group (UIG), a renowned source for high-quality visual content. This particular artwork should be appreciated for its artistic merit and historical significance rather than any commercial use. In preserving the memory of Alessandro Farnese and his notable role in European history, this image serves as a testament to both his individual legacy and the interconnectedness between powerful dynasties during this era.
