EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Allegory of the offence in the process of decoding an arrow" transports us to a world filled with symbolism and intrigue. The image showcases a figure whose clothing is brimming with tongues and knives, representing the power of words and weapons in offense. As dogs attack, a herisson (hedgehog) throws darts, symbolizing the compulsion to repel offense by offense. The engraving is part of the renowned book "Iconologie oder Ideen aus dem Gebiete der Leidenschaften und Allegorien bildich dargestellt fur Zeichner, Mahler, Dichter, Gelehrte, Erzieher und freunde Hoherer Geschmacksbildung" (Iconology or ideas from the sphere of passions and allegories depicted visually for artists, painters, poets, scholars, educators and friends of higher taste), published in Vienna in 1801. This remarkable book contains 225 illustrations that delve into various aspects of human emotions and allegorical representations. Housed within a private collection today, this artwork by Stefano Bianchetti captures our imagination with its intricate details and thought-provoking narrative. It invites viewers to contemplate the complexities surrounding offenses committed against us and how we respond to them. Through its visual language steeped in symbolism from centuries past, this print serves as a timeless reminder that defense can sometimes take unexpected forms. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection by A© Stefano Bianchetti", we are reminded once again that art has an incredible ability to evoke emotions while offering profound insights into human nature throughout history.
