EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print depicts a Dutchman proudly holding a rooster in an unknown European studio. Dressed in traditional Dutch attire, the man wears a long, woolen coat with intricate patterns and a tall, conical hat, both typical of the fashion of the time. The rooster, with its vibrant, colorful plumage and sharp, alert gaze, is meticulously carved from boxwood, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the era. The Dutchman's hand, with its delicate yet strong grip, conveys a sense of connection and control over the lively bird. The background of the print is simple, allowing the focus to remain on the central figures. The Dutchman's expression is serious and determined, while the rooster seems poised and alert, adding to the overall dynamic of the image. The print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Low Countries during the 18th century, a time when European art and fashion were at their zenith. This figurine, now in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a rare and valuable example of the intricate handicrafts that emerged during this period. The print invites us to explore the world of 18th century Europe, transporting us back in time to an era of elegance, refinement, and artistic innovation.
