Emanuel von Baeyer Cabinet is pleased to launch a new online exhibition featuring over forty prints and drawing by Dutch and Flemish artists from the 16th to the late 18th centuries. We present an extensive display of some truly rare prints and drawings from the mid-sixteenth century, when the Italian influence on the Dutch and Flemish artists was the most prominent, to Rudolfine Mannerism prints of late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.

Works depicting aspects of the natural world and everyday life were so characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age that, during the seventeenth century, the Dutch stilleven and landschap were adopted into English as "still life" and "landscape." We are pleased to include in our exhibition a selection of landscape and genre prints and drawings from the 17th century. Additionally, some rare prints by lesser-known Dutch artists, who were essential in continuing Netherlandish printmaking traditions, are included as well.

Among the highlights of the exhibitions are a recently rediscovered drawing by Frans Floris; a proof impression by Raphael Sadeler I, in unknown first state; a complete set of six plates, all first state impressions, by Anthonie Waterloo; a highly finished drawing by Cornelis Visscher, for the principal figures for Visscher’s monumental print the Pancake Woman; and a rare satire print of the infamous Mississippi scheme - one of the earliest examples and images of an economic bubble.
