EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite brooch, created by Daniel Mignot in 1596, showcases intricate Baroque design with its tablestones set between winged griffins above and at the bottom. The brooch, a fine example of 16th century German art, is adorned with engraved metal and monochrome stones. The mythical creatures, griffins, are depicted with their wings outstretched, symbolizing power and strength. The griffins' presence adds an element of fantasy and mythology to this beautiful piece of jewellery. The brooch, now a cherished heritage artifact, was once a prized possession of the German elite during the Baroque era. Its intricate design and use of precious stones would have made it a status symbol. The brooch's engraving, reminiscent of the Baroque era's monochrome aesthetic, adds to its timeless appeal. The brooch is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it is admired by visitors from around the world. Its presence in this esteemed art institution is a testament to its historical significance and enduring beauty. The brooch's intricate design and mythological elements continue to captivate and inspire, making it a must-see for anyone interested in art, history, or mythology.
