The illustration displays two types of Holly. The upper branches show the Mountain Holly (Nemopanthus Canadensis), characterized by smoother-edged leaves and small white flowers. The lower branch depicts the American Holly (Ilex opaca), known for its classic spiny, jagged leaves and clusters of bright red berries. The artist, indicated by the text "Sprague. del" (delineavit, meaning 'drew it'), is Sprague?? The work was published and lithographed by Armstrong & Co, located at 166 Congress St, Boston.

Delineavit / Del.
'Tekende het'. Toevoeging bij de naam van de maker van de tekening waarnaar de prent werd gemaakt.

Hartelijk dank, Mirjam.
Op kunstbus kan ik het niet vinden, maar wel als ik 'delineavit' zoek.
Dit zal, in mijn eigen woorden, degene zijn die de originele tekening op de steen natekent.

I know you pervs will love this as much as I did 😘
It's supposed to be Christ child sitting in a flaming heart, a crown of thorns around his head. But y'all lemme tell you...it looks like a dude sitting on a labia surrounded by pubic hair. The Christ child is sitting semi cross legged in flowing robes. His hand is supporting his head with his knee supporting his elbow. He holds one of those gloves with a cross on it, but the location of it looks like the clitoris. Jesus looks bored. Diana Mantuana Italian, c. 1547-1612 The Savior Seated on a Heart 1577 Engraving on paper Devotional imagery in print, such as this depiction of a young Jesus seated on a flaming heart, enjoyed widespread popularity throughout Catholic countries from the 1400s to the 1800s. Diana Mantuana trained in her family workshop with her father, a sculptor, and established a career making prints after other artists' designs. In this example, however, her inclusion of the letter D (for delineavit, meaning "drew it" in Latin) after her signature suggests that she was responsible for the composition's design as well as its engraving. Prints exist in multiple copies, making them much more affordable for the consumer than a painting or sculpture. For artists of Mantuana's time, prints had the potential of spreading their names to new audiences, including future patrons.

Riverside Press had their own artists and engravers. I have always wondered what happened to all the old wood block engravings made in Boston. Now it appears some of those blocks might have made their way to Turkey.
The front cover of the March 1871 edition of The Child at Home. It was printed by Riverside Press in Cambridge. There’s a large illustration of a tiger family. It is signed Herrick del. The latter part is an abbreviation of delineavit, meaning “he drew it.”

The clarity of the illustrations is even more striking. Bitonal photographs are designed to clearly capture text, illustrations are usually unrecognizable.
An example of a bitonal microfilm image of an illustration in The Freedman. You can barely make out the presence of two figures, but the finer details and totally lost. An example of a high resolution color image of an illustration in The Freedman. The illustration is perfectly clear. Every line of the woodcut is visible. It’s a striking composition of two men wrestling in the foreground and a fireman with a hose in the background. The signatures at the bottom are easy to read: HYDE-DEL and Peirce. Del is an abbreviation for delineavit which is Latin for “drawn by”. Therefore these signatures indicate that Hyde drew the image and Peirce engraved it.
