EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Der kuing von Gutzin" takes us back to the year 1511 and offers a glimpse into a remarkable woodcut created by George Glockendon. The artwork is an early copy of Hans Burgkmair's 1508 woodcut depicting the King of Cochin, inspired by Balthasar Springer's report following the first voyage made by German merchants to Africa, Arabia, and the East Indies. In this particular block from the series, we witness a grand procession led by warriors who faithfully follow Cochins palanquin. Armed with spears and bows, these soldiers exude strength and determination as they escort their king through his kingdom. The scene showcases not only the diversity of Cochins subjects but also highlights natives from Africa, Arabia, and India. Cochin itself is now known as Kochi—a vibrant port city situated on India's west coast in Kerala district. This historical artwork provides valuable insights into both cultural exchange and trade routes during that era. George Glockendon skillfully captures every detail within this woodcut frieze—depicting agriculture scenes with farm animals alongside majestic elephants—an emblematic symbol of power in Indian culture. As we admire this print today, it serves as a reminder of our interconnected history—a testament to humanity's curiosity for exploration and discovery across continents. Let us cherish these artistic treasures that bridge time gaps between generations while celebrating diverse cultures around the world.
