EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Karel Dujardin from 1652, we are transported to a haunting battlefield scene. The image depicts a brave soldier on horseback, courageously inspecting the aftermath of a fierce battle. As he rides through the desolate landscape, his eyes fall upon two fallen comrades who have tragically lost their lives in the heat of combat. The artist skillfully captures the raw emotions and devastation that war inflicts upon its participants. The sickening sight of wounded soldiers and lifeless bodies strewn across the field serves as a chilling reminder of the harsh realities faced by those who fight for their cause. Amidst this grim tableau, a dead horse lies motionless, symbolizing not only loss but also sacrifice. In the distance, passing soldiers carry on with heavy burdens on their shoulders - perhaps carrying fallen comrades or preparing for another round of battle. As we delve into this historical snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that Dujardin's intention was not merely to depict violence and death but rather to provoke contemplation about human resilience and our capacity for both destruction and compassion. Quint Lox's insightful commentary adds depth to our understanding of this powerful artwork from Liszt Collection. It reminds us that art has an extraordinary ability to transcend time and evoke profound emotions within us all.
