Bulino, 1600 circa, firmato nell’immagine, in basso al centro "B. Spranger invent. / Fig. Sadeler sculp.". Nel margine inferiore, quattro versi in latino su due colonne “Non datur; eximas veneret, ut inscius artes, solus eas quaerens noscere, gestit amor…” e al centro “Inscius non honorabitur” Da un dipinto di Bartholomäus Spranger, 1596 circa, conservato a Vienna Magnifica prova, ricca di toni, impressa su carta vergata coeva, rifilata alla linea marginale, restauri perfettamente eseguiti agli angoli, tracce di piega orizzontale, per il resto in buono stato di conservazione. La composizione rappresenta l’allegoria della vittoria della saggezza sull’ignoranza. La saggezza è nelle sembianze di Minerva che ha un piede sull'ignoranza - un uomo con le orecchie d'asino, con le mani legate da una corda. Un putto la onora con una corona di alloro. Intorno a loro ci sono sette personificazioni delle sette arti libere: astronomia, musica, geometria, pittura, scultura e retorica, tra le altre. Sotto la rappresentazione c'è una didascalia latina di quattro righe che sottolinea che gli ignoranti sono incapaci di adorare le arti. Bibliografia Hollstein, XXI,115; Wurzbach 82. Engraving, 1600 circa, inscribed "B. Spranger invent. Fig. Sadeler sculp." in the plate, bottom centre. In margin below, four Latin lines in two columns “Non datur; eximas veneret, ut inscius artes, solus eas quaerens noscere, gestit amor…”, at centre: “Inscius non honorabitur”. Magnificent proof, rich in tone, printed on contemporary laid paper, trimmed at the marginal line, perfectly executed restorations at the corners, traces of horizontal crease, otherwise in good condition. After the painting by Bartholomäus Spranger, around 1596, in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Wien Wisdom is in the form of Minerva with one foot on ignorance, a man with donkey ears. A putto honors her with a laurel wreath. She has tied the hands of the man with a rope. Around them are seven personifications as a variation on the seven liberal arts: astronomy, music, geometry, painting, sculpture and rhetoric. Under the representation a four-line, Latin caption emphasizes that ignorant people are incapable of worshipping the arts. Literature Hollstein, XXI,115; Wurzbach 82.
