1652 1690 Abraham Bloteling Book Young Man
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a young man adorned in traditional menswear of the 17th century. The subject, identified as Abraham Bloteling, exudes an air of intellect and sophistication as he poses with a book held firmly in his hands. His choice of head-gear is particularly notable - a stylish hat that complements his attire perfectly. The engraving, created by an Amsterdam artist between 1652 and 1690, beautifully captures the essence of this era. The intricate details on the paper make it evident that great care was taken to depict every fold in the fabric and every strand of hair on Bloteling's head. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only fashion trends but also gain insight into the intellectual pursuits prevalent during this period. It serves as a reminder that books have always been valued sources of knowledge and enlightenment. While information about commercial use is explicitly excluded from discussion here, it is important to appreciate this artwork for its historical significance and artistic merit alone. This print allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such engravings and provides us with a window into Dutch society during the late 17th century.
