EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Everyman" captures the essence of human nature and self-interest. Created by Pieter van der Heyden, Pieter Brueghel (I), and Hieronymus Cock between 1556 and 1560, this artwork delves into the depths of selfishness and personal gain. In the image, a man with glasses on his nose can be seen examining various items scattered on the ground. These objects symbolize commodities, games such as chess, dice, and card games that represent different aspects of life's pursuits. The man appears focused as he contemplates which piece to pull towards himself from a cloth-covered table. The composition suggests that every individual seeks their own interests in life. The Latin inscription "interesse proprio ripa" further emphasizes this concept of self-interest. It reminds us that each person is driven by their desires and ambitions. The attention to detail in this photograph print is remarkable; it showcases the meticulous craftsmanship of Pieter van der Heyden, Pieter Brueghel (I), and Hieronymus Cock. Quint Lox has expertly captured the essence of this historical artwork through his lens. This print from Liszt Collection invites viewers to reflect upon their own motivations and actions. It serves as a reminder that while we may all be Everyman seeking our own interests, it is essential to consider others' well-being in our pursuit for personal gain.
