EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print, we see John Lydgate, the renowned English poet of the medieval era, deep in contemplation as he gazes upon the Wheel of Fortune. Created in 1513 and featured in his notable work "The Fall of Princes" this image beautifully captures Lydgate's introspective nature and his fascination with life's unpredictable twists and turns. Surrounded by an angelic figure and a bishop, Lydgate stands as a representative of both the clergy and literary circles during the Renaissance period. The presence of men and women in this artwork symbolizes how no one is exempt from the whimsical nature of fate depicted by the wheel. Lydgate himself appears to be lost in thought, perhaps pondering on his own experiences or those he has observed throughout history. As a monk-poet, he possessed a unique perspective that allowed him to delve into themes such as power dynamics, morality, and human frailty. This woodcut print not only showcases Lydgate's intellectual depth but also serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of his works. It invites us to reflect on our own lives while reminding us that fortune can change at any moment – an ever-present reminder for both medieval society and our modern world alike.
