EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a poignant moment in history, depicting the painter Andrea del Sarto desperately pleading with his wife, Lucrezia del Fede, not to abandon him during his battle with the plague. Created by the French School in the 19th century and engraved by Stefano Bianchetti, this image is part of "Histoire Des Cocuses Celebres" by Henry de Kock. Andrea del Sarto, known as Andrea d'Agnolo (1486-1530), was renowned for his artistic talent but fell victim to the devastating epidemic that swept through Italy. In this engraving from 1871, we witness his vulnerability as he implores Lucrezia not to leave him alone in his time of need. The artist's plea reflects both the desperation and fear that gripped individuals during times of widespread disease. The black and white composition adds a somber tone to the scene, emphasizing the gravity of their situation. This artwork serves as a reminder of our shared humanity and vulnerability when faced with illness. It also highlights the sacrifices made by loved ones who stand by us during challenging times. As we contemplate this historical moment frozen in time, let us reflect on our own relationships and appreciate those who support us unconditionally through sickness and health.
