Lot description

A very detailed work typical for the Bry: A panoramic scene showing literally hundred figures making part of a cavalcade. Rebekah sits side-saddle on a mule in her wedding garb; a group of guests sit in an amphitheater and watch a group of dancers. After a design by Baldassare Peruzzi (1581-1636) also engraved by Gijsbert van Veen (1558-1628) in 1585. Our print dating from 1580-1600. Same print in British Museum, there cut off beneath the text, here complete with the borderlines all around.
