EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Marriage of Wealth Closed by the Devil" we are transported to a world where love, wealth, and temptation intertwine. The image, created by renowned artists Jan Saenredam, Anonymous, and Hendrick Goltzius in the late 16th century, captures a profound symbolism that still resonates today. At first glance, we see a man and woman standing before an altar-like structure. They represent two individuals bound together in matrimony through a civil ceremony. However, it is the presence of the devil that truly captivates our attention. With his sinister gaze and outstretched arm connecting the couple's hands with his own clawed fingers, he symbolizes the lucrative aspect of their union. The devil's connection to this real-life marriage signifies how wealth can often be at odds with true love. It serves as a reminder that material possessions can corrupt even the most sacred bonds between two people. Jan Saenredam's masterful composition combined with anonymous craftsmanship and Hendrick Goltzius' artistic vision create an evocative piece that invites contemplation on themes of desire and temptation. Quint Lox has skillfully captured this thought-provoking artwork in photographic form for all to appreciate. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Liszt Collection, let us reflect on our own relationships and consider whether they are built on genuine affection or merely driven by worldly gains.
