EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of Pope Innocent X Allegorical representation, a stunning piece of art that transports viewers to the grandeur and symbolism of 17th-century Antwerp. At the center of the composition stands Pope Innocent X himself, regally positioned under an ornate canopy. A poignant scene unfolds before him as a weeping female personification presents him with a heart-shaped coat of arms, symbolizing love and devotion. Adding intrigue to this allegorical tableau is a dog playing with a torch and a rich apple in the background, representing loyalty and abundance. Surrounding them are cardinals who attentively observe this powerful exchange. In the foreground, we find an endearing putto holding broken weapons, perhaps signifying peace or vulnerability amidst power struggles. Above the majestic canopy float various putti adorned with flags and medallions depicting biblical scenes such as the Mystic Lamb, Noah's Ark, Madonna, and King David. The masterful engraving by Pieter de Jode (II) beautifully captures every intricate detail on paper measuring 349 mm in height by 220 mm in width. This remarkable artwork not only pays homage to Cardinal Pope Innocent X but also serves as a testament to Antwerp's artistic prowess during its golden age.
