EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page of "The Examination of mens Wits" by Juan Huarte, a groundbreaking treatise published in 1594. The intricate design and rich symbolism on this frontispiece immediately draw the viewer's attention. At the center of the composition stands a majestic palm tree, representing knowledge and wisdom.
