EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "February: Shrove Tuesday" transports viewers to a vibrant and lively scene. The anonymous print maker, along with Crispijn van de Passe I and Maerten de Vos, skillfully captures the essence of this festive month. The image showcases an interior setting filled with masked figures joyously celebrating Shrove Tuesday, also known as Mardi Gras. At the center of the composition, a pair of figures engage in a game of dice around a table adorned with various signs and symbols representing the zodiacal nature of February. The atmosphere is one of merriment and revelry as these masked individuals partake in non-liturgical celebrations such as carnival. Mirrored reflections add depth to the picture while emphasizing the mirrored nature between those celebrating and their corresponding feast days. Inscribed in Latin on the frame is an acknowledgment that February is indeed a cold month. This detail further emphasizes how these festivities serve as a respite from winter's chill. Quint Lox has masterfully captured this historical artwork from the Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details and cultural significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the exuberance and spirit that defined Shrove Tuesday celebrations during this period.
