Ornament Fillet with Candelabre-Ornament

Daniel Hopfer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a long, vertically oriented illustration. The illustration features a sequence of ornate designs stacked on top of each other. At the top, a draped figure stands on a structure with crossed axes and plants on either side. Below, a bowl-like object with a wavy bottom sits atop a decorative base with leaves and tendrils. Further down, two nude male figures hold up a similar bowl-like object. The figures are flanked by sea creatures and stand on a decorative base. At the bottom, a scroll-like design features the letters "D H" and is adorned with leaves and tendrils. The entire illustration is framed by a thin border, with a small number in the bottom-left corner. The background of the illustration is off-white. The illustration style suggests it is an example of Renaissance art, specifically by Daniel Hopfer.
