EDITORS COMMENTS
This title page, created by the Flemish artist Paulus Pontius in the 17th century, showcases an intricate and ornate design that embodies the essence of the natural world and the concept of wealth and finance. The central image features a cowhide or animal pelt adorned with various animals, including birds of prey and cows, symbolizing the cycle of life and the importance of the animal kingdom in the natural order. The hide is further embellished with engravings of coins and coinage, adding a metaphorical layer of meaning, representing the value and currency of the natural world and the importance of preserving it. The title, "Du Pont Paulus," written in elegant lettering, is surrounded by a decorative border filled with intricate designs, including the caduceus, a symbol of healing and renewal, and an owl, a symbol of wisdom and knowledge. The overall effect is one of richness and depth, inviting the viewer to explore the intricacies of the design and the deeper meaning behind the imagery. This title page is a testament to the artistic talent and cultural heritage of the Flemish school, and a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture the imagination and inspire wonder. It is a treasure to be found in any art centre or gallery, and a valuable addition to any collection of historic and illustrative works.
