EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing print by Crispijn van de Passe, we are transported to a scene filled with satire and political caricatures. The artist cleverly uses the theme of hygiene to mock and tease various characters within an interior setting. At the center of the composition, an old woman named Margot is depicted making sausages while wearing a fool's cap. Her actions symbolize her foolishness and simplicity, as she unknowingly contributes to unhygienic practices. Meanwhile, a man named Heintzman points at her with a smile on his face, exuberantly trying to prevent a drop from falling into the sausage mixture. The presence of wild boar warming itself by the fire adds another layer of irony to this satirical piece. As German and French dialogue form a poem in the background, it becomes clear that van de Passe intended to highlight societal attitudes towards hygiene during his time. Through his intricate details and mocking portrayal of these characters, van de Passe invites us to reflect upon our own hygienic habits while also shedding light on social issues through humor. Quint Lox's interpretation captures both the essence of this artwork and its historical significance within the Liszt Collection.
