EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion, the marriage of Jonas Witsen and Isabella Maria Hooft. The image showcases an allegorical performance that commemorates their union, featuring a prominent commemorative needle at its center. Flanking the needle are personifications of Unity and Love, symbolizing the strong bond between the newlyweds. In the middle of this enchanting scene stands a female figure adorned with a large medallion depicting an image of a man and woman holding hands. Surrounding this memorial are arched hedges, beautifully decorated with burning hearts bearing different letters. Atop these hedges, two playful putti proudly display a medallion engraved with the couple's monogram. Below them lie two more cherubic figures holding coats of arms, along with an obelisk and another needle representing matrimonial harmony. The various elements in this artwork represent important themes such as Agreement, Unity, Concordia (both insuperable and military), Concordia di Pace (Concordance of Peace), Unione civile (Civil Union according to Ripa), Charity (Caritas or Carita according to Ripa) - one of Three Theological Virtues. Created in Amsterdam in 1704 using paper etching techniques, this print from Liszt Collection serves as both a visual testament to love's enduring power and an exquisite piece for art enthusiasts seeking historical significance.
