EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print titled "Het lusthuys van Pater Peters, en de Jesuwijten en Munniken, ontdekt door, Sic itur ad astra, scilicet" offers a fascinating glimpse into the scandalous world of Father Petre and his cohorts. The scene takes place in a bawdy house of pleasure where these religious figures freely indulge in their vices. Wantonness, Avarice, Sloth, Fury, and Vanity are among the sinful characters present as they mingle and dine with the priests. The print captures shocking moments of lascivious acts committed by the priests themselves while also depicting them stealing money from a dying person. In contrast to this debauchery, we witness a Protestant minister being driven away from the door as if unwelcome in this immoral setting. Adding to its surreal nature is the sight of a fox delivering a sermon from an elevated pulpit. Meanwhile, Jesuits help themselves to treasures supposedly acquired in India. Each individual figure within this artwork is numbered and can be identified through an accompanying key contained in the dialogue between Eusebius and Simplicius. With its intricate engraving technique and Victorian-era style, this historic print transports us back to another time. It serves as both an artistic representation of that era's culture and an intriguing window into historical events that were once considered scandalous or controversial.
