Kip (Gallus gallus domesticus) (1596-1610)

Anselmus Boëtius de Boodt is the artist behind "Kip (Gallus gallus domesticus)", dated 1596-1610. Plants & Animals, a short history: Images of plants and animals run from medieval herbals and bestiaries to the scientific illustration of the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. Images of plants and animals are valued both for the care of their observation and for their decorative appeal. Context for 1596-1610: Elsewhere, the Mughal court in India developed a distinctive tradition of miniature painting, and printed images continued to travel widely between countries. The Protestant Reformation changed how religious imagery was commissioned in northern Europe, while Venetian painters made rich colour and brushwork a central concern. It is listed in the Plants & Animals collection. The image is in portrait orientation.
