On One Source of Russian Ornamental Engraving of the 17th CenturyAbstractThe article is devoted to the study of Russian ornament of the 17th century. For the first time, the series “Portraits of Kings and Heroes” (“Heads of Kings and Heroes”, 1594) by Nicolaes de Bruyn (1571–1652/6) is introduced into scientific circulation. It was republished in the 17th century, and was used by Russian masters as an iconographic source for Russian ornamental engraving. De Bruyn’s motifs are repeated in the engravings of L. Bunin and other masters. The proof of the direct use of the Dutch master’s engravings by the Russian artists was a copy of the Matthäus Merian Bible discovered in the Scientific Library of Kazan State University, to which the series “Creation of the World” and “Portraits of Kings and Heroes” by Nicolaes de Bruyn were bound. By its appearance, this convolute was in everyday use of the icon painter, served as a kind of original icon painting.
