EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, dating back to 1485, depicts a scene from the enchanting legend of Melusine. Created by an anonymous German artist in the 19th century, this engraving showcases the rich history and mythology of the Middle Ages. The image is part of a private collection and was featured in Julius Hart's "Geschichte der Weltlitteratur" (History of World Literature) published around 1894. Melusine, a mesmerizing mermaid-like creature, takes center stage in this artwork. Her beauty is strikingly portrayed as she gracefully bathes amidst a lush natural setting. This illustration beautifully captures her allure and serves as an embodiment of idealized beauty during that era. The legend of Melusine has its roots in European folklore and particularly resonates with German culture. It tells the tale of a noblewoman cursed to transform into a half-human half-serpent being every Saturday. This woodcut print not only brings this story to life but also reflects the artistic techniques prevalent during the fifteenth century. With its intricate details and expert craftsmanship, this woodcut print stands as both an exquisite piece of art and a historical artifact. Its inclusion in textbooks or educational materials would undoubtedly enhance any study on medieval literature or Germanic traditions. Bridgeman Images' restoration work has digitally cleaned this image, preserving its original charm for contemporary audiences to appreciate and explore centuries-old legends like that of Melusine
