EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century German line engraving titled "Ordeal by Water" depicts a chilling scene of discrimination and cruelty. In the midst of an occult ritual, two women are subjected to a test of their innocence or guilt. Bound by ropes, they are thrown into the water to determine their fate. In this mystic portrayal, one woman defies expectations as she remains afloat on the water's surface, seemingly untouched by its depths. She is believed to be a witch, accused of practicing dark arts and consorting with evil forces. Her ability to defy gravity only fuels suspicions against her. Meanwhile, another woman struggles in vain as she sinks deeper into the unforgiving waters. Her desperate fight for survival is met with indifference from those who judge her worth based solely on superstition and prejudice. This haunting image serves as a reminder of the injustices faced by women throughout history. It highlights how discrimination can lead to cruel acts such as public trials and executions based on mere accusations. As we gaze upon this engraving, let us reflect on our own society and strive for equality and justice for all individuals regardless of gender or belief system. May it serve as a testament to our collective responsibility in challenging discriminatory practices that have plagued humanity for centuries.
