EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century print depicts the City of Angers, a historic city located in Maine-et-Loire, Pays de la Loire, France. The image, created between 1600 and 1650, showcases the city's stunning architecture, with the Angers Cathedral taking center stage. The cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, is adorned with intricate details, including flying buttresses, pointed arches, and ornate sculptures. The print, created with a combination of brush, ink, and possibly watercolor paint or pigments on parchment or animal material, offers a glimpse into the religious and cultural heritage of the city during this period. The presence of the cathedral underscores the significance of Christianity in the region, which was a dominant force in European society during the 1600s. The print also features the River Loire, which flows through the city and is a prominent geographical feature of the region. The Dutch influence is evident in the detailed rendering of the cityscape, which is reminiscent of the Low Countries' artistic tradition. This beautiful and intricately detailed print is a testament to the artistic skills of the anonymous artist, known only as Anon. It is a valuable addition to any collection of European art or history, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the City of Angers and the broader European context in which it is situated. The print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, the Dutch national museum of art and history in Amsterdam, and is a must-see for anyone interested in European art, history, or religious heritage.
