EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Saint Barbara as martyr" we are transported back in time to witness the powerful depiction of a legendary figure. Created by the talented artist Schelte Adamsz. Bolswert between 1596 and 1659, this artwork showcases Saint Barbara in all her glory. The image portrays Saint Barbara with various attributes that symbolize her identity as a virgin martyr. Holding a book, she represents knowledge and wisdom, while clutching a cannonball signifies her perseverance and strength in the face of adversity. A crown adorns her head, signifying her status as royalty within the realms of heaven. A cross and chalice wafer further emphasize Saint Barbara's connection to Christianity, highlighting her unwavering faith even during times of persecution. The presence of peacock feathers suggests divine beauty and immortality, while swords and torches represent both spiritual warfare and enlightenment. Masons tools remind us that Saint Barbara is also regarded as the patron saint of architects and builders due to an ancient legend associated with constructing towers. Speaking of which, a towering structure looms behind our protagonist, serving as a reminder of her ultimate sacrifice for what she believed in. This print captures not only the artistic brilliance but also pays homage to one of history's most revered martyrs - Saint Barbara. Quint Lox has masterfully captured every intricate detail through his lens from Liszt Collection for us to admire for generations to come.
