EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two intriguing illustrations from the renowned Compendium Maleticarum by Fr M Guaccius, published in Milan in 1608. The left side of the image depicts a group of witches cleverly disguised as animals, fearlessly riding on a broomstick through the night sky. On the right side, we witness an enigmatic male witch confidently astride a majestic wolf, both exuding an aura of mysticism and power. The woodcut technique used to reproduce these illustrations adds depth and texture to the artwork, enhancing its timeless appeal. This particular print was featured in a late 19th-century publication titled History of Magic, further solidifying its historical significance. As we delve into this mesmerizing scene, we are transported back to the 17th century when beliefs in witchcraft and sorcery were prevalent. The artist's skillful portrayal captures not only the physical forms but also conveys an essence of otherworldliness that surrounds these supernatural beings. This remarkable piece from Italian School is now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate and study this fascinating aspect of history while marveling at the artistic prowess employed by our ancestors centuries ago.
