EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Good Thing is threatened" by Hendrick Goltzius, we are transported back to the year 1597. The scene unfolds in a bustling town square where Victoria, the Roman personification of victory, stands at its center. She symbolizes the triumph of good over evil. Surrounding her are judges and lawyers, representing both sides of justice. Some appear virtuous and honorable while others exude greed and deceit. Witnesses stand ready with spears in hand, prepared to defend what is right. The print captures a moment of tension as a "good thing" known as bona causa in Latin, is being tried amidst rush and chaos. Yet despite the threats it faces from those who seek to exploit it for personal gain, an unscathed victory awaits. Goltzius skillfully portrays this complex narrative through his meticulous attention to detail. The square is extensively depicted with Dutch and German influences evident throughout the composition. As viewers immerse themselves in this historical artwork from Quint Lox's collection at Liszt Collection, they are reminded that even centuries ago, issues of greed and litigation plagued society. However, there remains hope that justice will prevail when good people rise above these challenges
