EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to a realm of fantasy and intrigue. In the foreground, we witness an epic battle between a cunning wolf thief and a fearless rooster defender. The wolf, caught red-handed stealing a chicken, finds himself under attack by the valiant cock who refuses to let his feathered companions be taken without a fight. But what truly captures our attention is the majestic dragon looming in the background. Its presence adds an air of mystery and danger to this already dramatic scene. With its scales glistening in the moonlight, it stands as a symbol of power and mythical wonder. Created by Theodore de Bry in the late 16th century for Michael Maier's alchemical treatise "Tripus avreus" this engraving showcases not only artistic skill but also reflects the fascination with science and mysticism during that era. It serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal quest for knowledge and understanding. The intricate details of this illustration bring these fictional characters to life, allowing us to immerse ourselves in their world. From the intensity in the eyes of both predator and prey to every stroke that brings texture to their fur or feathers, we are captivated by this snapshot frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, we are reminded that art has always been a powerful medium for storytelling – transporting us across time and space into realms where imagination knows no bounds.
