EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork "A horse and ostrich and a wildcat and wild man" by Roelandt Jacobsz Savery, or a follower of his. The painting, created in oil on canvas laid down on board, is currently held in a private collection. The composition features an intriguing juxtaposition of various symbols that represent nobility versus evil. On the left side, we see a majestic horse standing tall next to an elegant ostrich. These creatures embody grace and beauty, symbolizing goodness and morality. In contrast, the right side presents us with a wildcat accompanied by a mysterious wild man. This pair represents ungodliness and base instincts associated with satanic forces. The presence of this big cat hints at danger lurking within the shadows. Savery's masterpiece skillfully captures these opposing elements through intricate details and vibrant colors. The male figure holds a staff as if commanding these beasts under his control. As we delve into this painting's symbolism, it becomes apparent that it serves as a reminder of the eternal struggle between good and evil present in our world. It challenges viewers to reflect upon their own choices while contemplating the consequences they may bring forth. This print from eLawrence Steigrad Fine Arts allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Savery's work up close while pondering its profound meaning beyond mere aesthetics.
