EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century in Italy, where witches and sorcerers gather for a mystical feast at the Sabbath. The woodcut image, titled "Witches and sorcerers feasting at the Sabbath, 1608" is taken from Francesco Maria Guazzo's Compendium Maleficarum. In this supernatural scene, we witness a gathering of individuals indulging in witchcraft amidst a country setting. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of mystery to the composition, enhancing its occultism. The creator of this intriguing artwork remains unknown but has masterfully captured the essence of this clandestine event. The witches are depicted enjoying their meal with great fervor as they partake in forbidden delights. This depiction showcases both their connection to nature through the rustic surroundings and their devotion to dark arts during this sacred occasion known as the Sabbath. As we observe this print from Heritage Images, we are transported into a world filled with intrigue and enchantment. It serves as a reminder of how beliefs surrounding witchcraft have evolved throughout history while also highlighting Italy's rich cultural heritage in matters related to magic and superstition. Whether one believes in these supernatural occurrences or not, there is no denying that this woodcut print offers us a glimpse into an era when such practices were deeply ingrained within society's fabric.
