EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Plate 2 of Stefano della Bella's "Various heads and figures" collection, dating back to the 17th century. The composition features a man with a distinguished moustache and fur cap facing left, creating an oval-shaped image. The clothing worn by this Italian gentleman reflects the fashion of that era. Stefano della Bella's etching technique beautifully showcases the intricate details of the man's facial hair, emphasizing his well-groomed moustache. The fur hat adds an element of elegance to his overall appearance. The subject gazes away from the viewer, perhaps lost in deep thought or captivated by something beyond our sight. His expression is enigmatic, leaving us wondering about his story and what lies behind those eyes. Israel Henriet skillfully printed this piece, preserving its historical significance for generations to come. This artwork now finds its home at the Metropolitan Museum of Art where it can be admired by visitors who appreciate both artistry and history. Plate 2 serves as a testament to Stefano della Bella's talent as an artist and provides us with a glimpse into 17th-century Italy. It reminds us that even centuries later, we can still connect with individuals from different times through their portraits - capturing their essence in one frozen moment.
