The composition is circular, contained within a square frame featuring decorative corner motifs. Within the circle, several angels are shown in flight, each holding a trumpet. The imagery relates to the seven angels who receive trumpets to announce the judgements of God. Below the circular scene, Latin text provides a theological context for the visual narrative, describing the divine judgement and the tremors that follow the sounding of the trumpets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDe Jode, known primarily for his work in cartography and his publishing house in Antwerp, demonstrates here the technical precision common to the period. The etching employs fine, controlled lines to define the figures of the angels, the clouds, and the distant sea. The perspective is compressed, focusing the viewer on the central action of the angels rather than a realistic spatial environment. The use of hatching and cross-hatching creates volume in the drapery of the angels' robes and the atmospheric effects of the clouds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work reflects the interest in biblical themes that permeated European print culture during the sixteenth century. Such prints were often produced for devotional books or as individual sheets for collectors. The inclusion of Latin verse at the base of the print suggests an audience familiar with ecclesiastical texts and the symbolic language of the period. The composition balances the celestial activity of the angels with the terrestrial landscape below, creating a clear distinction between the divine and the mortal realms. The print remains a clear example of the graphic style of the late Northern Renaissance, where clarity of line and narrative legibility were prioritised.\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-martyrdom-of-saint-catherine-of-alexandria-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;\"\u003eThe Martyrdom of Saint Catherine of Alexandria - Albrecht Dürer — Albrecht Dürer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/nouans-pieta-jean-fouquet\" 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;\"\u003eNouans Pieta - Jean Fouquet — Jean Fouquet\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":58415118909775,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58415129821519,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58415129854287,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415129887055,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415129919823,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415129952591,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415129985359,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415130018127,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415130050895,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58415130083663,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58415130116431,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58415130149199,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Zeven-engelen-krijgen-een-bazuin_Poster_CompositorV1_1786130143448.jpg?v=1786130406","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/zeven-engelen-krijgen-een-bazuin-gerard-de-jode","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
