EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable allegorical sculpture, "The Belgian Revolution in 1830" created by Carel Christiaan Anthony Last. The bas relief artwork, produced between 1831 and 1835 by Desguerrois Co. , depicts the tumultuous events of the Belgian Revolution with great artistry. At the heart of this central altar-like composition lies a profound message of love for one's fatherland. The Dutch lion and the Belgian party are depicted as warring entities, representing the conflict that engulfed Belgium during its struggle for independence. Envy takes form as a menacing wolf while Cerberus, symbolizing hellhound, stands chained to represent the oppressed Belgian people under Dutch rule. Amidst this chaos, we witness a ray of hope embodied by figures such as Virgin and Concord. Mercury, known as the messenger of gods, conveys messages between these warring parties. Neptune mourns over their discordant actions. Through intricate details and grieving descriptions, Last masterfully captures both French and Dutch influences on this historic event. Quint Lox's skillful photography brings out every nuance in this mesmerizing sculpture print from Liszt Collection. As we delve into this visual narrative of war and unity, let us reflect upon how art can immortalize historical moments while reminding us of our shared humanity.
