Beskrivning

This fine religious engraving of Santa María, Madre de Dios was executed by Boetius Adams Bolswert after a composition by Abraham Bloemaert. It was published in Antwerp in 1619. The engraving captures the devotional tenderness and solemnity characteristic of early 17th-century Flemish religious art, with strong emotional expression and precise line work.

Boetius Adams Bolswert (c.1580–1633) was a prominent Flemish engraver known for his detailed and technically masterful works. He collaborated closely with Peter Paul Rubens, helping to disseminate Rubens’ imagery through high-quality reproductive engravings. Bolswert’s prints are celebrated for their refinement and their significant role in the spread of Baroque aesthetics across Europe.

Abraham Bloemaert (1566–1651), a leading figure of Dutch Mannerism and early Baroque, was known for his religious, historical, and pastoral compositions. His influence extended through his works and pupils alike.
