GOEIMARE (JOOS) Fine large view of the interior of a lavishly stocked kitchen, bustling with activity, a roaring fire, the walls and tables abundant with foodstuffs (meats, fish, vegetables and fruits), plate and utensils, engraving on 2 sheets (joined) by Stefano Scolari after Joos Goeimare, lettered lower right "Valegio f stefano scolari formis in venecia", wide borders, some loss to lower border, image 450 x 690mm., [Venice, c.1650-1687]
Footnotes
A magnificent kitchen scene, adapted as a purely secular scene from a sixteenth century engraving by Boetius à Bolswert depicting Christ in the house of Martha and Mary, by the seventeenth century Venetian engraver and publisher Stefano Scolari. Christ has been converted into a young man holding a large plate holding a pie embellished with bird's head, whilst the seated Mary now holds a basket of fruit in place of a book.
