EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Device of the Flemish Gueux or Beggars" takes us back to the 16th century Dutch revolutionary movement. Created by an anonymous English artist in 1878, this print showcases a powerful emblem that symbolizes the spirit and resilience of the Gueux. Intricately detailed, the image features two hands clasping each other firmly. One hand holds a wallet while the other grasps a banner with an inscription that reads "Jusques a Porter la Besace" (Until we carry our wallets). This motto encapsulates their determination to fight for justice and freedom against oppressive forces. The engraving is taken from Paul Lacroix's book "Science and Literature in the Middle Ages" published in London during the 19th century. It offers a glimpse into historical events that shaped European society. Displayed within this private collection, this lithograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical artifact. The fine lines and intricate details highlight the craftsmanship of its creator, capturing not only physical attributes but also conveying emotions and ideals associated with resistance. As we admire this print today, it reminds us of past struggles for liberty and equality while encouraging us to reflect on our own role in shaping society. Let it serve as a reminder that even small acts can make significant changes when driven by conviction.
