EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Crapula et Lascivia" takes us back to the 16th century, depicting a scene of excessive drinking and lust at a banquet. The illustration is part of the renowned book "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte von Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart" by Eduard Fuchs, published in Munich around 1910. In this elaborate feast setting, we witness a moment filled with debauchery and indulgence. Men and women are dressed in exquisite Renaissance costumes, engaging in various acts that symbolize the seven deadly sins. A musician plays his lute while another strums on a guitar, adding an element of music to this sinful affair. The artist behind this intricate print is Maarten de Vos (1532-1603), who skillfully captures the atmosphere of decadence prevalent during that era. The detailed furniture and table settings transport us into this historical banqueting scene. "Crapula et Lascivia" serves as both an artistic representation of human desires gone astray and as a reminder of our fascination with history's darker aspects. It invites viewers to reflect on how excesses can lead to moral decay. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate the mastery of de Vos' engraving technique while immersing ourselves in a world where feasting, music, and sensuality intertwine.
