EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-18th century lithograph print titled "Lubok: The Devil carries away those preoccupied by Money" we are transported into the realm of Russian folk art. This intriguing piece, created by an anonymous artist from the 18th century Russian School, delves into the timeless theme of greed and its consequences. The image showcases a male figure being carried away in a chariot driven by none other than the devil himself. With his sinister grin and piercing eyes, Satan embodies both temptation and punishment for those consumed by their desire for wealth. The bandit-like appearance of the devil hints at dishonesty and sinfulness associated with such pursuits. This popular print serves as a cautionary tale against usury - lending money at exorbitant interest rates - which was considered sinful during that era. It highlights how individuals who succumb to their insatiable hunger for riches ultimately become victims themselves. Through vibrant colors and intricate details, this artwork captures the essence of traditional Russian culture while conveying a powerful message about human nature's darker side. As viewers, we are reminded to reflect on our own priorities and question whether our pursuit of material gain may lead us down a treacherous path. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection preserved within eArchives Charmet, offering us an invaluable glimpse into Russia's artistic heritage. Its historical significance combined with its profound thematic exploration makes it an exceptional addition to any fine art collection or exhibition dedicated to exploring humanity's complex relationship with
