EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "One egg apiece all round, but two eggs for the gallant Schweppermann" takes us back to medieval times in Denmark. Created by the talented artist Johann Jakob Kirchhoff in 1840, this woodcut is a remarkable piece of fine art that tells a story from German history. The image depicts an intriguing scene from the book "Geschichte des deutschen Volkes" by E. Duller. It showcases a moment during the Battle of Mühldorf where Duke Louis IV of Bavaria, also known as Louis the Bavarian, stands out as a courageous figure deserving two eggs instead of just one like his comrades. Kirchhoff's monochrome picture beautifully captures the essence of this historical event while incorporating elements of mythology and allegory. The attention to detail in this woodcut is truly impressive, showcasing both his artistic skill and dedication to accurately portraying Germany's past. This rare find comes from a private collection and serves as not only an exquisite example of book design but also as a window into German history. It reminds us how art can be used to preserve important moments and stories for generations to come.
