EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured woodcut from 1598 depicts a thrilling encounter between a sea serpent and a ship, showcasing the rich mythology surrounding the seas. The German School of the 16th century masterfully brings this mythical creature to life, capturing its immense power and ferocity. The print transports us back in time, immersing us in an age when sailors braved treacherous waters filled with fantastical creatures. The ship is caught in the grip of this monstrous serpent, its massive body coiling around the vessel while waves crash against it. The scene evokes both awe and terror as we witness nature's raw force unleashed upon mankind. Myths about sea serpents have fascinated cultures throughout history, often representing primordial chaos or untamed natural forces lurking beneath the surface of our world. This artwork serves as a reminder that even on calm seas, danger can arise unexpectedly. The vibrant colours used in this woodcut add depth and intensity to the image, enhancing our experience of this dramatic moment. It is through art like this that legends are kept alive, reminding us of humanity's eternal struggle against powerful forces beyond our control. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, we are reminded of the enduring power of storytelling and imagination – for it is within these realms that myths come alive and captivate our senses once more.
