The work belongs to a series of prints illustrating the months of the year through regional costumes and seasonal activities. The male figure wears a wide-brimmed hat, a doublet, and a cloak, while the female figure is dressed in a gown with a ruff collar, holding a bunch of grapes. The inclusion of grapes serves as a visual reference to the autumn harvest and wine production, which is further suggested by the Latin inscription at the base of the print. The background features a modest structure and a hilly terrain, providing a sense of place without distracting from the figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVan de Passe (II) was a member of a prominent family of Dutch engravers and publishers. His technique demonstrates the precision characteristic of seventeenth-century printmaking, using cross-hatching and varied line weights to define the textures of the clothing and the contours of the figures. The composition is balanced, with the two figures facing one another in a formal, static pose. The zodiac symbol for Scorpio is placed in the upper left corner, a common convention in calendar-themed prints of this period. The work provides a glimpse into the fashion and social observations of the early seventeenth century, captured through the medium of copperplate engraving. The print is a clean example of the period's interest in documenting regional identities and the cyclical nature of the calendar year.\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\/adolescence-abraham-bosse\" 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;\"\u003eAdolescence by Abraham Bosse\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/birdcatcher-with-a-little-owl-plate-62-simon-guillain\" 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;\"\u003eBirdcatcher with a little owl, plate 62 by Simon Guillain\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/crispijn-van-de-passe-the-younger\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Crispijn van de Passe the Younger →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Crispijn van de Passe the Younger","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462504448335,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462536626511,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462536659279,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462536692047,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462536724815,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462536757583,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462536790351,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462536823119,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462536855887,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462536888655,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462536921423,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462536954191,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Oktober_-paar-uit-Duitsland_Poster_CompositorV1_1792126892484.jpg?v=1794361418","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/oktober-paar-uit-duitsland-crispijn-van-de-passe-ii","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
