EDITORS COMMENTS
Title Page: Large Pendant, 1593" is an exquisite engraving by the renowned 16th century artist Daniel Mignot. This work of art showcases a large, ornate pendant, adorned with intricate designs and various fantastical creatures. The central motif is a pair of amorini, or cherubs, embracing each other, their delicate wings outstretched. Above them, an angel with a book in hand looks down, while below, a hare and a squirrel playfully interact. The pendant is encircled by elaborate strapwork, which adds to its grandeur. The background is adorned with intricate lettering, giving the title and the year of creation. The black and white, or monochrome, palette adds a timeless quality to the piece, transporting us back to the Baroque era. Daniel Mignot, a German artist from the 16th century, was known for his mastery of engraving and his ability to bring fantastical creatures to life. This title page, which serves as a design for a piece of jewellery, is a testament to his artistic talent and the rich heritage of the art world. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is fortunate to have this precious piece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of Mignot's work. The pendant's design, with its religious undertones and fantastical creatures, speaks to the complexities of the Baroque era and the enduring appeal of the art of that time.
