EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jacques Callot captures a vibrant scene from the Baroque era. This black and white etching on laid paper restrike transports us back to 17th century Italy, where we witness the grand entrance of King Philip III of Spain and Queen Margaret of Austria into the fortified city. The image showcases a procession led by horseback riders, with the royal couple at its center. The horses exude strength and elegance as they navigate through the town gate, symbolizing power and authority. The walled city stands tall in the background, emphasizing both protection and exclusivity. Callot's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of people from all walks of life lining up along the streets to catch a glimpse of their monarchs. Men, women, and children alike are captivated by this momentous event that unites them under one religion - Christianity. This print not only serves as a historical record but also highlights Callot's mastery in capturing movement and action within his artwork. Each figure comes alive with energy as they watch or participate in this significant occasion. As we gaze upon "Entry Into the Town of Ferrara" we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in European history - a convergence between royalty, religion, artistry, and community that still resonates today.
