Etching by Christoph Jamnitzer from his book of ornament designs, Neuw Grotteßken Buch (1610). The compositions are squarely in the tradition of grotesquerie — a mode of depiction dating back to European antiquity in which motifs and figures are combined and recombined in creative hybrids and fanciful arrangements.
