EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Demon Born of the Deluge, a fascinating figure from historical folklore and mythology. The Demon, also known as the Cloven One or the Man with Horns and Hooves, is believed to have been born during the Biblical Deluge, or Great Flood, when God sent a cataclysmic flood to cleanse the earth of its wicked inhabitants. As the waters receded, this demonic figure is said to have emerged, half man, half beast, with horns sprouting from his head and hooves replacing his feet. The image of the Demon Born of the Deluge has been a subject of fascination and fear throughout history, appearing in various European folk tales and legends. This particular print, from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the enduring allure of this mythical creature. The intricate details of the Demon's horns, hooves, and facial features are rendered with remarkable precision, while his imposing size and muscular build exude a sense of raw power and primal energy. The print's historical significance is further emphasized by its provenance, as it was produced in Nuremberg, a city renowned for its rich artistic heritage. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail are hallmarks of the Nuremberg school of printmaking, which flourished during the 16th and 17th centuries. Whether viewed as a symbol of fearsome power, a reminder of the destructive forces of nature, or a testament to the human imagination, the Demon Born of the Deluge continues to captivate and inspire, making this print a valuable addition to any collection of historical or mythological art.
