EDITORS COMMENTS
A Fulfilled Wish (Der erfüllte Wunsch), 1911, captured in this color lithograph by Moritz Jung, portrays a humorous yet thought-provoking scene of domestic dispute. Set in early 20th century Austria, the image depicts an argument between a man and a woman, with their emotions vividly expressed through dynamic graphic design. Jung's clever use of lithography brings to life the tension between the two lovers as they engage in a heated discussion. The artist skillfully captures the moment when frustration escalates into violence, symbolized by the man punching his fist into his open palm. This portrayal raises questions about gender dynamics and power struggles within relationships. The vibrant colors and intricate details enhance our understanding of this historical context while adding an element of playfulness to the artwork. Through his unique style, Jung invites viewers to reflect on societal norms and expectations surrounding love and partnership. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of its heritage art collection, "A Fulfilled Wish" serves as a reminder that even seemingly trivial arguments can have deeper implications for individuals and society at large. By exploring themes such as love, dispute, and violence with wit and creativity, Moritz Jung leaves us pondering our own desires for fulfillment.
