[Flemish] SADELER, Aegigius I. After Albrecht Dürer Virgin and Child in a landscape. Turned to the right. Engraving, 24,2 x cm, thin laid paper, signed in plate at lower left edge "Cum privil S.C.M.tis" (lower text margin trimmed off, paper browned). Late impression on 19th-c. paper. Nice plate. Second and final state after Dürer's watercolour drawing, kept in Vienna. The lively composition of the Virgin playing with the infant Christ in a landscape full of varied detail reflects the evolution towards the genre of independent landscape painting. Ref. Hollstein XXI:
