Raphael I SADELER (Antwerp, 1561 - circa 1632), engraver and - Lot 95
Raphael I SADELER (Antwerp, 1561 - circa 1632), engraver and publisher after Marten de VOS (Antwerp, 1532 - Antwerp, 1603), author Series title: The Four Ages of Man, pl. 1 Original title: Amor Burin on laid paper 22 x 25 cm à vue Original frame 35 x 38 cm (unframed) Bibliography : Hollstein Friedrich Wilhelm Heinrich , Dutch Flemish Etchings, Engravings and Woodcuts, ca. 1450-1700, Roosendaal, Amsterdam: Koninklijke Van Po, Rijksprentenkabinet Rijksmuseum, 1949-2010, XXI.255.206 ; XLIV.289.1462 Nota : "Since antiquity, the divisions of the ages of life have varied (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12) and their representations may appear concomitantly. Marten de Vos associates each age (adolescence, youth, adulthood, old age) with its preferred activities and a season, illustrated by the activities in the background or, in the case of autumn, by the statues of Bacchus and Ceres in reference to the grape harvest. These allegorical representations are typical of the production of series of didactic prints in the 16th-century Netherlands." (cf MAH Musée d'art et d'histoire, Ville de Genève. Gustave Revilliod bequest, 1890 Inventory number E 2014-0001-001) Provenance: Hôtel de Conti, Fontainebleau
