EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a tragic event that unfolded in the Polish village of Perzyn in 1676. In this heart-wrenching moment frozen in time, we witness the aftermath of a devastating lightning strike during a christening ceremony. The sheer power and unpredictability of nature is vividly captured as 23 lives were abruptly taken away. The image serves as a haunting reminder of life's fragility and the unexpected turns it can take. It prompts us to reflect on the significance of rituals such as baptism, which symbolize new beginnings and spiritual protection. However, on this fateful day, these sacred rites became intertwined with an unforeseen tragedy. The work itself was created by Jan Luyken and Pieter van der Aa in 1698, showcasing their exceptional talent for capturing both human emotion and natural elements. Through their meticulous attention to detail, they convey not only the devastation caused by lightning but also the grief-stricken faces of those left behind. Quint Lox's presentation of this historical photograph print allows us to delve into Poland's past while honoring those who lost their lives so tragically. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst joyous celebrations like baptisms, accidents can occur without warning – forever altering communities and leaving lasting imprints on our collective memory.
