EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed drawing of the majestic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo), beautifully captured by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt in the late 16th to early 17th century. Numbered at the top right as "16" this artwork is part of the third album containing exquisite illustrations of various bird species. Commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II, these twelve albums were created to document animals, birds, and plants known around 1600. The meticulous drawings are accompanied by explanations in Dutch, Latin, and French languages, providing valuable insights into each subject. Measuring approximately 297 mm in height and 196 mm in width, this piece was skillfully crafted using paper as its base material. Watercolor paint brings vibrant hues to life while deck paint adds depth and texture. Pencil lines create intricate details alongside chalk highlights and ink outlines completed with a pen. The Cormorant itself stands out with its sleek black feathers glistening against a backdrop that hints at its natural habitat. This remarkable artwork not only captures the essence of this water-bird but also serves as a testament to de Boodt's talent for scientific illustration. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate historical artistry while immersing themselves in nature's wonders from centuries past.
