Album page with cut-out prints

diverse vervaardigers, c. 1585 - c. 1700

Making print collages was a widespread hobby in the 17th century. Few were as skilful at it as the compiler of this sheet. The collage of meticulously cut-out prints is from an album that originally contained about 300 such pages, with more than 2000 cut-out prints. The 22 now known pages can be found in the Print Room.
