EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print titled "Satyr Family" takes us back to the 16th century, showcasing the artistic talent of Urs Graf. The image is part of a collection called Illustrierte Sittengeschichte von Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart (Illustrated History of Manners from the Middle Ages to the Present) by Eduard Fuchs. In this enchanting scene, we are transported into a mythical world where satyrs come alive. A family of these half-human, half-goat creatures is depicted amidst a lush forest backdrop. The intricate details bring out their wild and mischievous nature as they engage in various activities. The satyrs are seen enjoying themselves with music and drink, emphasizing their love for revelry and merriment. One satyr blows into a horn-like musical instrument while others hold wooden pipes or flutes, creating an atmosphere filled with melodious tunes. Surrounded by towering pine and spruce trees, this woodland setting adds depth to the composition. It evokes a sense of ancient Greek mythology where such creatures were believed to reside deep within primaeval forests. Urs Graf's skillful craftsmanship brings life to these fantastical beings, capturing both their playful spirit and close-knit familial bond. This woodcut print serves as a window into centuries past when art was used not only for aesthetic pleasure but also as a means to explore mythical realms and cultural narratives.
