EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from the sixth album of drawings commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II in the early 17th century. The page features eight intricately detailed illustrations of crustaceans and molluscs, accompanied by their corresponding Latin names. The top right corner is numbered as nine, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal. Anselmus Boetius de Boodt, a renowned artist during that era, skillfully created these stunning depictions using various mediums such as paper, pencil, chalk, watercolor paint, ink, and pen. Each creature comes to life through his meticulous strokes and attention to detail. The album itself consists of twelve volumes filled with exquisite drawings of animals, birds, plants, shells, fish, insects - all known around 1600. This particular sheet focuses on crustaceans like crabs and shrimps while also featuring echinoderms like starfish. Accompanying the illustrations are explanations written in Dutch (Nederlands), Latin (Latina), and French (Français). These annotations provide valuable insights into each species' characteristics and behavior. Preserved over centuries with utmost care by the Liszt Collection team; this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic mastery of Anselmus Boetius de Boodt and the scientific curiosity prevalent during Emperor Rudolf II's reign. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with nature's wonders throughout history.
