EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Peace" by Quint Lox captures a moment of profound symbolism and allegory. The image showcases the personification of peace, represented by a serene woman adorned in flowing robes and a laurel wreath upon her head. Standing bare-breasted, she radiates an aura of tranquility as divine light shines upon her. Surrounded by a scenic landscape, the woman holds a palm branch in one hand, symbolizing victory and triumph over conflict. A pair of turtledoves perched on her other hand signifies harmony and love. In the background, clouds form majestic shapes while a music-making group plays harmonious melodies under the shade of towering trees. Nearby, we see a shepherd peacefully milking his cow amidst this idyllic scene. The artwork also depicts various virtues and vices that represent the vicissitudes of life. Through their contrasting presence within the composition – such as robes versus laurel wreaths – they remind us that peace can only be achieved through virtuous actions. Overall, this print beautifully captures both the visual beauty and symbolic depth found within "Peace". It serves as an invitation to reflect on our own pursuit of harmony in an ever-changing world filled with challenges and temptations.
