Jan Sadeler Maarten van Cleef Gerard de Jode

The collaborative artistic and publishing endeavor involving Jan Sadeler, Maarten van Cleef, and Gerard de Jode was active during the period spanning 1550 through 1585. This collaboration is documented through the production of several historical prints, often focusing on detailed narrative and biblical subject matter.

Five of their prints are currently represented in major museum collections, primarily depicting sequential scenes from the Book of Exodus. This limited documented output includes the works Preparation for the Passover, The Exodus from Egypt, God Appearing to Moses, The Invasion of the Frogs, and The Plague of Frogs.

These images, known for their specific historical detail and quality, are preserved in the permanent holdings of the National Gallery of Art. The presence of these museum-quality prints in such institutions ensures their ongoing study and preservation. As historical works, many of these Jan Sadeler, Maarten van Cleef, and Gerard de Jode prints are available in the public domain, often accessible as high-quality prints and downloadable artwork.
