EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "SMM2 p. 17 Storm, from Theatre des Vices et Vertus" by Jan van der Noot, a renowned Flemish author and poet of the 16th century. The image is part of a set of twelve emblem books and measures 13x13 cm. Preserved in Glasgow University Library, Scotland, this vellum manuscript transports us to a medieval world filled with drama and tempestuous weather. In the foreground, we see a hazel tree uprooted by the powerful wind blowing over a raised bed. The stormy atmosphere is intensified by the bursting sunburst shining through dark clouds above. This dramatic scene evokes both awe and fear as nature's forces clash. The intricate details captured in this French School artwork highlight its artistic brilliance. The skillful use of wattle technique adds depth to the landscape while emphasizing the chaotic movement caused by the storm. As we gaze at this mesmerizing piece, it becomes evident that it belongs to an emblem book—a genre popular during that era—where images were paired with moral lessons or allegorical meanings. Through this illustration, van der Noot invites viewers into his visionary world where nature's power can be both destructive and illuminating. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly reproduced this masterpiece for Fine Art Finder, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its historical significance and marvel at van der Noot's ability to capture such vivid emotions within his work.
