EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Laziness" we are transported back to the year 1558, where Pieter van der Heyden and Hieronymus Cock collaborated on a remarkable piece of art. This work of art beautifully personifies the cardinal sin of laziness, also known as sloth or indolence. The image showcases a feminine figure leaning against a wall, fast asleep in her state of idleness. She is accompanied by an array of fantastic scenes that symbolize the consequences and manifestations of laziness. From devils lurking in the shadows to fabulous animals and snails representing slow progress, every element tells a story. What makes this print even more intriguing is its meticulous attention to detail. The artist's signature can be seen proudly displayed in Latin and Dutch script, reminding us that this masterpiece was created by skilled hands centuries ago. As we gaze upon this artwork from Quint Lox's collection at Liszt Collection, we cannot help but reflect on the timeless nature of human vices. Laziness remains relevant today as it did during its creation over four centuries ago. Let this thought-provoking print serve as a reminder for us all to resist succumbing to lethargy and strive for productivity instead. May it inspire us to break free from our own personal slumbers and embrace life with vigor and purpose.
