EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-century painting titled "Peasants Fleeing (Witchcraft)". Dutch artist Adriaen Pietersz. van de Venne captures a moment of intense fear and superstition. The oil on wood print, measuring 24.1x36.8 cm, transports us to a time when the belief in witchcraft held immense power over people's lives. The scene depicts a group of peasants running frantically through a desolate landscape, their faces etched with terror and desperation. Van de Venne masterfully uses sepia tones to create an eerie atmosphere that heightens the sense of danger and uncertainty. As we gaze at this artwork, we are reminded of the deep-rooted fears that plagued society during this period. Superstition was rampant, and accusations of witchcraft could lead to persecution or even death. The painting invites us to ponder the plight of these frightened individuals as they flee from an unseen threat lurking in their midst. It serves as a poignant reminder of how irrational beliefs can shape our actions and drive us towards chaos. Displayed at Nottingham City Museums and Galleries (Nottingham Castle), this remarkable piece offers both historical insight into the anxieties of its time and artistic mastery in capturing human emotions through brushstrokes. "Peasants Fleeing (Witchcraft)" is not just another painting; it is a window into an era where superstition reigned supreme, leaving ordinary people caught between reason and unexplained phenomena – forever
