EDITORS COMMENTS

This print, titled "Also a Dance of Death, Sheet III, 1849" takes us back to the turbulent times of the German Revolution in 1848. Created by Alfred Rethel in Frankfurt, this woodcut is part of a series that explores the macabre theme of death through allegory and literature. In this particular sheet, we witness a powerful representation of Germania, symbolizing Germany itself. Clad in traditional attire and holding the flag of Germany high above her head, she stands amidst a chaotic scene filled with skeletons dancing gleefully around her. This dance of death serves as a haunting reminder that even during times of revolution and change, mortality remains an ever-present force. Rethel's work reflects not only his mastery in graphic arts but also his deep understanding of history and mythology. Inspired by the Nazarene movement prevalent at that time, he skillfully combines religious symbolism with political commentary to convey profound messages about life's transience. Now held within a private collection, this print offers us a glimpse into an important period in German history – the March Revolution – when citizens fought for their rights and freedom from oppressive rule. It serves as both an artistic marvel and historical artifact that continues to captivate viewers today.
