Theodor van Merlen II
Theodor van Merlen II is represented in this archive by a single etching, a reduced copy after a larger composition, dated 1633. His printmaking sits within the seventeenth-century Flemish tradition of reproductive and devotional graphics, turning religious narrative into etched line. The subject matter on hand is the miracles of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, rendered through that same reductive copying technique. The collection holds only this one sheet, with impressions up to 1633, so later printings are documented rather than additional compositions.
