EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Mounting his horse, he rode quietly and unattended to the red gate" we are transported back in time to the tumultuous era of the Netherlands in the 1920s. The artist, Arthur David McCormick, skillfully captures a pivotal moment in history with his vivid use of color lithography. The image depicts a powerful scene where an unidentified figure mounts his horse and embarks on a solitary journey towards a striking red gate. As he rides quietly and unattended, one can't help but feel intrigued by what lies beyond that gate - perhaps secrets waiting to be unveiled or challenges yet to be faced. The setting is charged with emotion as it showcases elements such as mob costumes, anger, rage, and barricades. It becomes evident that this historical event is marked by deep-seated religious tensions between Protestants and Catholics. The presence of William of Orange suggests that this may be connected to the uprising led by Calvinists against Catholic rule. As we delve into the details of this artwork, we witness not only a visual representation but also an exploration of human feelings and emotions. The artist masterfully conveys the intensity felt during these times through symbolism like furor and allusions to the seven deadly sins. This print serves as both a window into history's past struggles while also reminding us that our own present-day battles for justice often echo those fought long ago.
