Hi Aeron, Stradano is also known as Jan Van der Straet, see my comment to the Philip Galle print after Stradano that you posted 2-20-07.
The Stradano of the devil in the globe is very similar to the print by Galle that you posted 5-10-08.
And you posted a St Anthony by Galle after Stradano / Straet on 11-23-07.

Thanks for these Aeron, it is nice to see these large, a few years ago I bought a big book on Stradano, (the most that I have ever spent on a book!) - but the repros are small, and the one of the Devil in the globe is tiny, AND in black and white.

Hi Paul, thanks for connecting the dots with these previous posts, I wonder if the devil in the globe image has been repeated anywhere else? And I was surprised to find such large copies of these online, always nice to find big versions of artworks like these that have so many interesting details to pour over.
