EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Leaf with ten locusts, Spring-hens. / Locustae / Santerelles". The image captures a leaf adorned with ten distinct grasshoppers and crickets, each meticulously numbered from 1 to 10. Positioned at the top right corner is the number one, emphasizing its significance within this composition. Part of the sixth album featuring drawings of fish, shells, and insects, this masterpiece was commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II during the early 17th century. Created by Anselmus Boetius de Boodt in Prague between 1596 and 1610, it beautifully combines various artistic techniques such as pencil sketches, chalk outlines, watercolor paint application, deck paint accents, ink detailing, and pen strokes. Measuring approximately 244 mm in height and 175 mm in width on paper substrate; this artwork not only captivates viewers but also educates them through detailed explanations provided in Dutch Latin and French languages. The Leaf with ten locusts represents just a fraction of an extensive collection consisting of twelve albums dedicated to documenting animals birds plants known around the year 1600. Its intricate details serve as a testament to both scientific accuracy and artistic brilliance that flourished during Emperor Rudolf II's reign.
