Jacob Hoefnagel, after Joris Hoefnagel

National Gallery of Art

The image displays two vases with floral arrangements on either side of a central design, featuring the upper part of a human figure. The color palette consists of shades of grey and black, typical of engravings. On the left is a vase labeled "HOMO" with a floral arrangement and a squirrel, while the right vase labeled "BVLLA" has another floral display with an owl. Above, a decorative network of birds, a bat, and serpentine elements encircle the central figure, with inscriptions in Latin framing the composition.
