Notes |
This print is undescribed in Hollstein, Franken and Veldman. A German print from around 1620-1650 with a similar subject (1848,0708.379). The link between this print and Crispijn de Passe is that the print belonged to a German series about youth, together with a lot of prints after Crispijn the Passe's inventions. Several of De Passe's prints were re-used by other engravers for these kinds of series. This print in the BM belonged probably to one of the series for the youth by the German artist Jacob van der Heyden (1573-1645) and is not an invention of de Passe himself. Van der Heyden re-used a lot of prints by Crispijn de Passe for his series: 'The Pugillis Fecetarum', Strasbourg 1608 and for another series about the licentious student live of Cornelius Relegatus; the 'Speculum Cornelianum', Strasbourg 1618. He took three prints from the Passe's 'Academia', for the first part of the 'Speculum Cornelianum', 'the Pugillis'. The second part of the 'Speculum Cornelianum', 'the Stirpium' contains 58 prints, including the de Passe's 'Collectanea fabularum', 'Deliciarum juvenilium', 'Hortus', 'Four lessons about love' and several copperplates from 'The Academia', all in random order. It is similar in size, technique and subject to 1873,0614.92-94, 1873,0614.96-99 and 1873,0614.101-104. Literature: Ilja Veldman, 'Profit and Pleasure: Print Books by Crispijn de Passe', Rotterdam 2001, chapter 2: Student Life: The Academia (1612), p. 33, and chapter 3: 'Prints reused: The Nieuwen ieucht spieghel (1617)'; H. Meeus, 'In dees spieghel zal de domme jeught met vreucht leeren', in De zeventiende eeuw 7.2 (1991), pp. 127-143; German Hollstein XIIIA, Jacob van der Heyden, p.71, nr.186. |

The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only.
