EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jan Gillisz. van Vliet from 1634, we are transported to a study room where an old man engrossed in reading sits amidst a treasure trove of knowledge. The scene is bathed in the warm glow of candlelight, casting intriguing shadows on the walls adorned with hidden charts and bookcases filled with ancient volumes. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the scholarly gentleman himself, donning a pair of eyeglasses that speak to his wisdom and intellectual pursuits. With furrowed brows and intense concentration, he delves into the pages before him, immersing himself in a world created by words. Surrounding him are objects that further enhance our understanding of his scholarly nature. A globe rests nearby, reminding us of his thirst for exploration and discovery beyond the confines of his study. The wall chart hints at secrets waiting to be unraveled while showcasing his vast knowledge across various disciplines. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions associated with deep contemplation and intellectual curiosity. It invites us to imagine ourselves within this intimate space, sharing in the joyous pursuit of knowledge alongside this learned individual. Quint Lox's careful curation brings this historical artwork back to life for contemporary audiences who can appreciate its timeless beauty and celebrate humanity's enduring love affair with learning.
