EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "City People and Peasants Watching Two Skeletons and Angel with Book Open by Presentation of Final Judgment" captured by Cornelis van Dalen II and Jan Jacobsz Schipper in 1655, we are transported to a moment of profound contemplation. The image depicts a stark contrast between the bustling city dwellers and humble farmers, all united in their fascination with the scene unfolding before them. At the center of attention are two eerie skeletons accompanied by an angel holding an open book, symbolizing the final judgment that awaits us all. The worn pages of the book suggest countless stories of lives lived and choices made. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking tableau, we cannot help but reflect on life's eternal struggle between death and existence. The composition is set against a picturesque landscape, where quaint houses dot the horizon. Townspeople gather around eagerly while peasants observe from afar, their expressions ranging from curiosity to trepidation. A scroll bearing Hebrew text adds an air of mystery to the scene, inviting viewers to decipher its hidden meaning. This print serves as a reminder for us to live virtuously and appreciate life's simple pleasures amidst our busy urban lifestyles. It invites us to ponder our own mortality while embracing moments of fun and joy within our homes or towns. Quint Lox beautifully captures this timeless masterpiece from Liszt Collection without any commercial intent; instead allowing it to inspire introspection about life's ultimate prospect - judgment or redemption?
