EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Scale in the form of a shell, supported by a mermaid and a merman" we are transported back to the Renaissance era. The intricate craftsmanship of Balthazar van den Bos, Cornelis Floris (II), and Hieronymus Cock is beautifully captured in this composition. At the center of attention stands an enchanting mermaid with her mesmerizing tail intertwined with that of her male counterpart. Their graceful presence exudes elegance and strength as they support a magnificent snail shell. This unique shell serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a functional scale. The delicate details on the shoulders of these mythical creatures showcase their divine beauty, while their expressions convey an air of serenity. It is as if they were frozen in time, forever dedicated to their task of supporting this extraordinary creation. The artist's choice to incorporate elements from nature, such as the cochlea-shaped shell, adds depth and symbolism to the piece. It reminds us that even in artifice, there is always inspiration drawn from our natural surroundings. This remarkable print by Quint Lox allows us to appreciate not only the skillful workmanship but also invites us into a world where fantasy meets reality. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout history and leaves us longing for more glimpses into this magical realm created by Balthazar van den Bos, Cornelis Floris (II), and Hieronymus Cock in 1548.
