EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant scene from the 17th century. Plate 13 of Stefano della Bella's Caprice faict par de la Bella series depicts two peasants standing to the left, observing a crippled man kneeling on the ground in the center. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays the physical disabilities of this individual with great sensitivity. In contrast to this somber moment, a woman carrying a child can be seen from behind on the right side of the image. This inclusion adds depth and complexity to an already captivating composition. Behind them all, a church stands tall in the background, symbolizing faith and hope amidst challenging circumstances. Stefano della Bella's etching technique brings this rural scene to life, showcasing his mastery as an Italian artist during that era. The use of black and white enhances both the starkness of poverty and resilience depicted in this artwork. Displayed at The Met museum, this print by Stefano della Bella serves as a reminder of our shared agricultural heritage and highlights themes such as disability, laborers' lives, and family dynamics within rural communities. It invites viewers to reflect upon societal attitudes towards individuals with disabilities throughout history while appreciating their contributions despite adversity.
