EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut from 1489, titled "WITCHES, 1489. Witches brewing up a hailstorm" transports us back to the late medieval era in Germany. The intricate details of this print allow us to witness an intriguing scene filled with mysticism and superstition. In the center of the image stands a cauldron, bubbling over with an ominous brew concocted by these mysterious women. Dressed in tattered garments and adorned with pointed hats, they embody the archetypal witch figure that has fascinated and frightened people for centuries. As their hands hover above the cauldron, we can almost feel the energy being summoned into existence. Flames dance around them while dark storm clouds gather overhead, hinting at their ability to manipulate nature itself. With their powers unleashed upon the world, it seems as though even hailstorms are subject to their command. The woodcut's style adds depth and texture to every element depicted – from the gnarled branches surrounding these witches to their hauntingly ugly features. It serves as a reminder of how deeply rooted beliefs in magic and occult practices were during this time period. This print is not only a testament to artistic skill but also provides insight into popular entertainment during that era. It captures our imagination by offering a glimpse into a world where conjurers could summon storms with just a flick of their wrists.
