About the Item
Title: "Allegorical Tribute to Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Negroni"
Description: This intricate engraving features an allegorical landscape dedicated to Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Negroni. At the center, a lavishly detailed escutcheon bearing the Negroni family coat of arms is festooned with drapery and flanked by classical figures and lush vegetation. Below the shield, a grand fountain, from which water cascades into a serene pool, serves as a focal point. In the foreground, classical figures, including one in a chariot drawn by swans, inhabit the scene, suggesting themes of nobility and grace. The background reveals a distant view of mountains and a classical temple, enhancing the engraving's depth and the idyllic quality of the landscape. The ornate text beneath the coat of arms likely praises or dedicates the work to the cardinal, common in artworks of this period meant to honor high-ranking individuals.
Fountain with dedication to and coat of arms of Giovanni Francesco Negroni, from the "Fontane delle ville di Frascati" series. This engraving shows a central fountain dedicated to Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Negroni, prominently displaying his coat of arms. In the foreground, two figures work with hammer and chisel on the shield.
Created by an anonymous printmaker and published by Giovanni Giacomo de'Rossi in Rome, Italy, between 1653 and 1691, this piece is part of a larger album exploring the Fountains of Frascati. The artwork is executed in etching and engraving on paper.

Detailed Engraving of The Greater Coat of Arms of Sweden, 1669
Located in Langweer, NL
This is an original detailed engraving of the greater coat of arms of Sweden, referred to in Swedish as "Svea rikes huvudvapen." The engraving was printed in Paris in 1669 according to Erik Vennberg.
The coat of arms is elaborately detailed, with each escutcheon representing a component of the Swedish empire, including the arms of the House of Vasa among others. At the center, the shield is crowned with a regal crown, symbolizing the Swedish monarchy. Two regally posed lions, a common heraldic symbol of courage and strength, support the shield. The entire composition is topped with a mantle that looks to be teeming with various heraldic motifs, representing the unity and history of the Swedish nation.
The intricacy of the work is indicative of the period's engraving techniques, with each line meticulously carved to bring out the opulence and intricate detail of the symbols. The coat of arms is a visual representation of the sovereignty and history of Sweden.
The engraving is attributed to Jean Le Pautre, a notable French engraver from the 17th century, while the author of the work is Erik Dahlbergh...
