EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, created by Cornelis de Visscher in 1650, showcases the Coat of Arms of Haarlem, serving as the end page to the Counts and Countesses of Holland, Zeeland, and West-Frisia. The image, a testament to the Dutch Golden Age, is a stunning example of 17th century heraldic art. The central focus of the composition is the shield of Haarlem, adorned with a star-shaped design and framed by a richly embellished border. Surrounding the shield, cherubs and putti playfully interact with nature, represented by trees and palm trees. The cherubs, symbols of love and beauty, drop palms as an offering, adding a touch of whimsy and grace to the design. Cornelis de Visscher, a renowned Dutch engraver and etcher, masterfully executed this intricate work on ivory laid paper. The black and white contrast enhances the intricate details of the design, making it a standout piece in the annals of heraldic art. The print is a visual representation of the aristocratic identity and heritage of Haarlem during this period. This print is a cherished addition to any art collection, art gallery, or art institute. Its concept, rooted in the Dutch Golden Age, continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and intricate details. The interplay of the star-shaped shield and the cherubs and putti in the border creates a harmonious balance between the concept of identity and the natural world, making it a must-have for any art enthusiast or historian.
