EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "Variety Act 3: 132nd Day of Fasting, A. Lucci the Famous Hunger Artist" transports us back to early 20th century Austria. Created by Moritz Jung in 1907, this colorful print showcases the renowned hunger artist A. Lucci during his remarkable feat of fasting for an astounding 132 days. Intriguingly designed with vibrant colors and intricate details, the image captures a moment of both awe and concern as we witness A. Lucci's determination and sacrifice. The German text on the lithograph further adds to its authenticity and historical significance. The scene depicts A. Lucci sitting amidst a crowd, engrossed in reading while calmly smoking his tobacco pipe. His gaunt appearance reflects the toll that prolonged fasting has taken on his body, evoking a sense of empathy from viewers. Moritz Jung's artistic prowess shines through in this lithotint masterpiece as he skillfully portrays not only the physical aspects but also conveys deeper emotions surrounding themes such as employment struggles, industrial action, and even mortality itself. This stunning piece is now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), where it serves as a testament to human endurance and resilience throughout history. It stands as a reminder that art can capture not just beauty but also profound moments that resonate across time and cultures.
