EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "December, print maker: Pieter van der Borcht I, 1545 - 1608" takes us back in time to a winter landscape filled with scenes of human activities and the climatic characteristics of this chilly month. The central focus of the image is a slaughterhouse where pigs and oxen are being slaughtered, cured, brined, smoked, and salted. This depiction highlights the importance of conserving and preserving meat during the winter months. Intriguingly, amidst this bustling scene lies the constellation Capricorn, symbolizing December's zodiacal influence. It serves as a reminder that even in ancient times people were aware of celestial movements impacting their daily lives. Pieter van der Borcht I masterfully captures both the practicality and beauty found within December's labours. The picturesque winter landscape adds an enchanting touch to this historical piece. As we gaze upon this print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection, we are transported to a different era where human ingenuity was necessary for survival during harsh winters. It invites us to reflect on our own modern conveniences while appreciating the resourcefulness displayed by our ancestors
