AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

profile portrait of the Gelderland Hanzestad Elburg.

The focus lies entirely on the open landscape and the horizon. In the foreground a solitary walker with his dog is very subtly visible, walking over the hills toward the town. The characteristic defense towers and the tall tower of the Grote Kerk form the centerpiece of the skyline.

Manufactured by the German engraver and publisher Caspar Merian (1627–1686).

Edition & Year: Published in 1659 in Frankfurt am Main. This version was specifically bound into the first editions of Martin Zeiller's historical work Topographia Germaniae Inferioris (and the Latin/French editions of Topographia Circuli Burgundici).

Height 11 cm.; width 34 cm. Sheet: 14 x 38 cm

Seller's Story

Passion for Art, Antiques, and Collectibles. Always enthusiastically searching for interesting and beautiful Collectibles in Antiques, Art, Curiosities, Design & Vintage at markets, auctions, and estate sales. I am fascinated by the story and history behind the various objects and their makers. The aim is to give these beautiful objects a new place among enthusiasts for their collection or to enhance their interior. Started this dream as a sole proprietorship in 2018. And of course, there is the love for the French Bulldog: Pip and especially successor Chouffe. That's why they are included again in my logo.
