Description: The Prints CollectorOriginal Antique Maps and Prints ABOUT US VISIT OUR STORE Antique Hunting Print-PARTRIDGE-HUNT-NET-SNARE-No. 67-Stradanus-1615 Description: This print originates from the 104-print series titled "Venationes Ferarum, Avium, Piscium" designed by Joannes Stradanus. These prints were very popular in their time, and reprinted often. Originally Philips Galle engraved 43 unnumbered plates with a dedication page to Cosimo de Medici. De Medici, who employed Stradanus between 1553-1571, commissioned him to make a series of lavish representations of hunting, fowling and fishing for the adornment of twenty rooms in the Palace of Peggio-a-Cajano. These are the designs so magnificently commemorated in the Venationes, blending well-tried renaissance hunting methods with fabulous subject matter drawn from Persia, India and the East. This series was enlarged and further plates by A. Collaert, J. Collaert, C. Galle I and C. de Mallery were added. Several sheets in this ed. have a cross of lorraine watermark with a star countermark, which points to 1590-1630. As this sheet was bound with a dated print dated 1615, we find a dating of 1615 plausible. Artists and Engravers: This print engraved by Philips Galle after the design of Joannes Stradanus. Joannes Stradanus (Brugge, 1523 - Florence, 1605) or Jan van der Straet, Giovanni della Strada, Giovanni Stradano, Giovanni Stratensis, worked principally in Italy as a designer of cartoons for tapestries.
