EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "II) Der Ritter vom Turm, von den exenplen der Gotzfurcht und erberkeit. 1499,1512,1513" captures a scene from the agricultural world in the 16th century. Created by Michael Furter, a German artist, this woodcut showcases the daily life of an agricultural worker during that time. In this image, we see a male farmhand diligently hoeing the crops in the countryside. The farmer's occupation required immense physical labor and expertise to ensure successful harvests. With his tool in hand and focused expression on his face, he embodies both strength and determination. Furter's attention to detail is evident as he portrays not only the man but also his surroundings with great precision. The rustic setting adds to the authenticity of this heritage art piece. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this woodcut serves as a valuable historical document depicting rural life centuries ago. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era when agriculture played a vital role in sustaining communities. As we observe this artwork today, it reminds us of our rich farming heritage and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to cultivating land for sustenance. Through Furter's skillful craftsmanship, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the hard work and dedication required for successful farming during that period.
