Daniel Mignot Details Mignot Daniel Pearl Pearls Pendant Strapwork Strength Strong Description

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 16th century pendant, titled "Large Pendant, Strength Standing at Centre," is a masterpiece by the renowned German engraver Daniel Mignot. Created during the Baroque era, this intricately detailed piece is a testament to the artistic prowess of the time. The central figure of the pendant is personified Strength, depicted as a robust woman standing confidently at the centre. She is adorned with a flowing gown, her muscular arms outstretched, holding a club in one hand and a chain in the other, symbolizing her power and dominance. The intricate strapwork design encircling her body adds to the visual appeal, with pearls and other decorative elements adding a touch of elegance. The black and white engraving, with its high contrast and intricate details, is a hallmark of the Baroque era. The monochrome palette lends a timeless quality to the piece, making it as relevant today as it was over four centuries ago. This exquisite pendant is a treasure of heritage art and a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the intricacies of the Baroque era. It is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Whether you are a collector, historian, or simply an art lover, this pendant is a must-see. Its intricate design, historical significance, and timeless beauty make it a true masterpiece of the 16th century.
