The Month Of December, Engraving, 16th Century.
December, a 16th-century engraving by an anonymous artist.
This allegory of December and Capricorn depicts a figure representing the season of cured meats and pork.
His bulk, knife in hand, embodies the grip of this addiction to fine food, suggesting an underlying moral message... a reference to the Protestant period.
This period print possesses considerable power.
In fair condition, slightly glued and with shortened margins, a small loss at the bottom left, and a barely legible collector's stamp are visible.
