Nymph Playing a Horn (recto); Bracket with a Man's Head (verso) 16th century Anonymous, German, 16th century German Design for a horizontal, rectangular panel decorated with foliage. In the middle an androgynous figure whose lower body consists of acanthus leaves is depicted playing a long, straight horn. On the verso a design for a highly decorated bracket has been made. The basic structure of the bracket is typical for the late renaissance style, but the bracket is covered by organic, rocaille-like ornaments. Characteristic is the buste of an almost bold man looking upwards, which is placed right below the top of the bracket. On the lower left, this head is repeated in red chalk (possibly in a different, later hand).. Nymph Playing a Horn (recto); Bracket with a Man's Head (verso) 335760
