Quotation

Ghemerckt dat ons dan in de treffelicke wercken van groote Meesters de schoonheyd der dinghen selver nerghens nae so krachtighlick beweeght; als de voorspoedighe stoutigheyd der Konste, soo ghebeurt het oock menighmael dat de levende ghelijckenisse van lellicke ende afsichtighe dinghen niet min vermaeckelick bevonden wordt als de gelijckenisse van d'aller schoonste lichamen.

[Suggested translation, Marije Osnabrugge:] Seen that nothing moves us more powerful than the beauty of things themselves in the striking works of great Masters; as the successful boldness of Art, this is how it also often happens that the living similitude of ugly or hideous things can be found just as entertaining as the similitude of the most beautiful bodies.
