EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Witches Sabbath, 17th Century" takes us back in time to the mysterious world of witchcraft and occult science. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving is a part of Bilder-Atlas, an encyclopedic illustration series from Brockhaus in 1875. The image depicts a scene from a witches' gathering during the Walpurgis Night, also known as Walpurgisnacht. In this dark and eerie setting, we witness flying demons and evil sorcery taking place under the moonlit sky. The German influence is evident throughout the artwork, showcasing elements of German culture and folklore. As we delve into this historical piece, it transports us to Northern Germany where tales of wizardry and incantation were prevalent during that era. The composition evokes a dreamlike atmosphere with its onirism and ethereal quality. With references to spiritualism, parascience, and occultism, this artwork delves into the realm of sorceresses practicing their craft at a witches' sabbath. It serves as both an intriguing glimpse into history as well as an exploration of human fascination with magic and supernatural phenomena. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this fine art print for our viewing pleasure without any commercial intentions.
