EDITORS COMMENTS
In Rome, c67, Lucifer pays homage to the departed soul in this poignant scene from Imre Madach's renowned poem, The Tragedy of Man. Captured beautifully in an engraving by Mihaly von Zichy, the artwork transports us to ancient Rome during the first century AD. The image depicts a solemn moment as Lucifer, often associated with darkness and temptation, shows his respect for the deceased. This unexpected gesture adds depth to Madach's exploration of human existence and mortality. Through his powerful words and vivid imagery, Madach invites us to contemplate life's complexities and confront our own mortality. Zichy's skillful engraving captures every detail with precision and emotion. The delicate lines bring forth a sense of timelessness while highlighting the contrasting themes of light and dark that permeate throughout Madach's work. This artwork serves as a visual representation of one of Hungary's most celebrated literary works. Imre Madach’s The Tragedy of Man has long been regarded as a masterpiece within Hungarian literature. Its universal themes continue to resonate with audiences worldwide. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of the beauty found within art but also its ability to transcend time and language barriers.
