EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Christ personified soul behold dog bites stone Jesus" by Jan Luyken, Amsterdam, 1678-1687, is a thought-provoking piece that encapsulates various layers of symbolism. The image depicts Christ and the personified soul observing a peculiar scene: a dog biting on a stone representation of Jesus. As the soul gazes upon this unusual sight, it becomes evident that there is more than meets the eye. Luyken's masterful use of paper and letterpress printing brings out the intricate details in this small-scale artwork measuring just 90mm in height and 69mm in width. The contrast between the divine figures and the earthly animal highlights themes of faith, suffering, and human nature. The biting dog represents mankind's tendency to question or challenge religious beliefs. It serves as a reminder that even sacred symbols can be subject to scrutiny or doubt. Meanwhile, Christ and the personified soul stand together in contemplation – their expressions conveying both surprise and understanding. Amsterdam-based artist Jan Luyken skillfully captures these complex emotions through his meticulous craftsmanship. His work invites viewers to reflect on their own relationship with spirituality and how external influences may shape their beliefs. As we delve into this mesmerizing print from Liszt Collection, let us appreciate its ability to evoke introspection while reminding us that faith can withstand even the most unexpected challenges.
