EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing 19th-century illustration titled "Witchcraft" we are transported to a world where scientists delve into the mysteries of the occult. The image depicts a group of learned individuals, their faces filled with curiosity and determination, as they search for a mole on the body of a witch. Their intention is not malicious but rather driven by an insatiable thirst for knowledge. The artist, E. Van Hoove, skillfully captures the tension between science and superstition in this scene. The naked woman at the center symbolizes vulnerability and mystique while also representing ancient beliefs associated with witchcraft. This print offers us a glimpse into an era when scientific exploration extended beyond conventional boundaries. It reminds us that even in our pursuit of understanding, there may be uncharted territories where reason meets folklore. Giancarlo Costa's inclusion of this artwork in his private collection speaks to its historical significance and artistic merit. As we observe this image today, it serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with the unknown and our relentless quest for enlightenment.
