EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Alchemist" captured by Quint Lox from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to the 17th century. The image showcases a man deeply engrossed in his work, surrounded by an array of intriguing objects. Seated on a wooden chair with a book resting on his lap, the alchemist is seen hunched over a table cluttered with jugs and pots. His weathered hands delicately handle various tools, as he meticulously conducts his experiments. A small stove nearby emits warmth and casts an enchanting glow upon the scene. The composition is further enriched by the presence of several books stacked neatly beside him. Their titles in Dutch and French hint at the vast knowledge required for such arcane pursuits. Among them, one can decipher "Onmogelijck" (Impossible), perhaps alluding to both the challenges faced by alchemists and their unwavering determination. Claes Jansz Visscher II's masterful engraving technique brings out intricate details within this artwork, allowing us to appreciate every line and texture. The play of light and shadow adds depth to each element present in this enigmatic setting. Quint Lox's skillful capture perfectly preserves this historical moment for us to admire today. As we gaze upon "Alchemist" we cannot help but be drawn into its mystical aura - reminding us of humanity's enduring quest for knowledge and understanding through centuries past.
