Plate 40: Design for festival architecture honoring the Spanish Prince Ferdinand's triumphal entry into the city of Ghent, January 28, 1635; from Guillielmus Becanus's 'Serenissimi Principis Ferdinandi, Hispaniarum Infantis...'. Dimensions: Sheet (Trimmed): 17 11/16 × 12 7/8 in. (45 × 32.7 cm). Published in: Antwerp. Publisher: Johannes Meursius (Flemish, active 1620-47). Date: 1636.
On January 28, 1635, the city of Ghent celebrated the entry of Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand of Spain, the recently appointed governor of the Southern Netherlands. A group of Flemish artists were commissioned to create paintings for the decoration of two triumphal arches erected in the city's main square for the occasion. Though the majority of these canvases are now lost, the engravings in Guillielmus Becanus's 'Serenissimi Principis Ferdinandi, Hispaniarum Infantis, S.R.E. Cardinalis, Triumphalis Introitus in Flandriae Metropolim Gandavum', Antwerp [1636], illustrate what the series looked like. The Metropolitan Museum of Art owns 34 plates from the set of 42.
Corners trimmed at top left and top right.
