EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 16th-century print, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous event - the birth of a child. The scene unfolds within the intimate confines of a bedroom, where an expectant mother sits gracefully on a birthing chair. Surrounding her are two women offering unwavering support as she awaits the arrival of her little one. Amidst this pivotal moment, astrologers gather around, casting horoscopes for the newborn. With focused expressions and ancient wisdom in their eyes, they seek to unravel the mysteries written in the stars above. A crescent moon shines brightly overhead, symbolizing new beginnings and celestial guidance. The midwife takes center stage as she skillfully delivers the baby into this world with utmost care and expertise. Her presence exudes reassurance and comfort amidst what must have been an arduous labor process. This intricate illustration technique transports us back to Frankfort-am-Main in 1587 when healthcare and medicine were vastly different from today's advancements. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come while honoring our rich history. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, it invites us to reflect on both the beauty and fragility of life itself. It reminds us that throughout centuries past, childbirth has always been surrounded by love, assistance, anticipation - all underpinned by age-old beliefs that connect humanity with forces beyond our comprehension.
