Jonas Suyderhoef
Jonas Suyderhoef belongs to the circle of seventeenth-century Dutch printmakers whose portraits and mythological scenes were carried out in etching and engraving, often in combination. The six sheets held here range across states recorded by Hollstein, from first impressions to later ones, and include portraits of Archdukes Albert VII and Maximilian III alongside bacchic subjects such as the Drunkenness of Bacchus and the Drunken Silenus. Impressions up to 1650 are represented, though some may be later printings from the original plates.
