Consolation through Confidence - A Mystical Journey into the Art of Dying
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving by Master E. S. , we are transported to a realm where spirituality and symbolism intertwine. Measuring 9.1x6.8 cm, this exquisite print titled "Consolation through Confidence" is housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The image depicts a scene filled with allegorical figures and mystical elements from both medieval and early Renaissance traditions. At its center lies a deathbed, where a female figure, possibly Mary Magdalene, seeks solace amidst her final moments. Surrounding her are symbolic representations of truth and honesty - an angel offering spiritual guidance while demons lurk nearby. A crucified Christ stands as an allegory for salvation, providing hope even in the face of death's imminent arrival. The presence of animals such as horses and chickens adds depth to the composition; they symbolize life's transient nature and serve as reminders that all living beings must confront mortality. Through intricate details and masterful craftsmanship, Master E. S invites us to reflect on our own mortality while finding strength in faith during times of transition. This engraving serves as an ars moriendi or "art of dying" guiding viewers towards peace of mind by embracing confidence in their spiritual journey. With its rich symbolism rooted in Northern Renaissance tradition, "Consolation through Confidence" offers viewers a profound glimpse into humanity's eternal quest for meaning beyond earthly existence.
