EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pride (Superbia)" transports us back to the late 16th century, showcasing the artistic genius of Zacharias Dolendo, Jacob de Gheyn II, and Hugo Grotius. The image depicts a mesmerizing scene symbolizing the concept of pride as one of the seven deadly sins. In this vanitas-inspired composition, an elegantly dressed woman gazes into a mirror decorated with intricate details and accompanied by a majestic peacock perched on her shoulder. As we observe her reflection in the mirror, it becomes clear that she is not alone; we become part of the narrative as viewers. The landscape surrounding her is scenic and diverse, featuring an obelisk, a port with ships sailing through calm waters, and even a globe. A gate opens onto a procession of people walking along rolling hills—a poignant reminder that fate awaits us all. The woman's posture exudes confidence as she stands amidst this beautifully adorned setting. Her hand delicately holds up the mirror while her gaze meets ours directly. It prompts introspection about our own virtues and vices which ultimately determine our path in life. Quint Lox masterfully captures every detail in this exquisite print from Liszt Collection. It serves as both an homage to these talented artists from centuries past and an invitation for contemplation on themes that remain relevant today.
