The composition is contained within a circular frame, a common format for sixteenth-century book illustrations. The angel occupies the upper centre, wings spread, blowing a long horn. Below, the earth suffers the consequences of the blast: fire consumes the trees, and a mixture of hail and fire descends upon the ground. The artist employs a dense network of lines to create texture and shadow, particularly in the billowing clouds and the foliage of the trees. The scene is framed by decorative corner motifs, typical of the period's print culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelow the circular image, Latin text provides context for the scene, referencing the seventh chapter of Revelation. The script is clear and formal, serving to guide the reader through the apocalyptic narrative. De Jode, a cartographer and publisher based in Antwerp, was known for his contributions to the dissemination of visual information through print. His work often combined technical precision with the dramatic flair characteristic of the late sixteenth century. The print demonstrates the skill required to translate complex theological concepts into a compact, readable format. The contrast between the celestial figure and the terrestrial destruction is managed through varied line weights and hatching techniques, which define the forms without relying on colour. This piece is a fine example of the narrative print tradition in the Low Countries, where religious themes were frequently explored through the medium of engraving to reach a wider audience of scholars and the faithful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-transfiguration-of-christ-albrecht-altdorfer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Transfiguration of Christ - Albrecht Altdorfer — Albrecht Altdorfer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/column-of-victory-for-the-subjugation-of-the-peasants-albrecht-durer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eColumn of Victory for the Subjugation of the Peasants - Albrecht Dürer — Albrecht Dürer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gerard de Jode","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58415166783823,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58415173927247,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58415173960015,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415173992783,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415174025551,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415174058319,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415174091087,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415174123855,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415174156623,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415174189391,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415174222159,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415174254927,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Eerste-engel-blaast-op-bazuin_Poster_CompositorV1_1786131014825.jpg?v=1786131378","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/eerste-engel-blaast-op-bazuin-gerard-de-jode","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
