Ontwerp (3) voor alliantiewapen (1743 - 1785)

Jan Brandes is the artist behind "Ontwerp (3) voor alliantiewapen", dated 1743 - 1785. Illustration in brief: Illustration serves a text or a story, a tradition that runs from decorated medieval manuscripts to printed book plates, magazines, and posters. The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are often described as a golden age of book and magazine illustration. Historical background, 1743 - 1785: The Enlightenment and the habit of the Grand Tour fed a wider interest in science, travel, antiquity, and natural history, and illustrators accompanied many expeditions. The eighteenth century began with the light, ornamental Rococo, especially in France, and moved towards the clarity and antique references of Neoclassicism by the end of the century. It is listed in the Illustration collection. The image is in portrait orientation.
