EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a powerful scene from the biblical story of Susanna and the elders. In this image, we witness Susanna as she endures harassment by two elders during her peaceful bath. Seated gracefully by a serene fountain, Susanna's vulnerability is evident as these men brazenly grab hold of her dress while making unwelcome advances towards her. The artist behind this stunning piece is Christoffel Jegher, hailing from the Southern Netherlands between 1606 and 1640. His meticulous attention to detail is apparent in every brushstroke captured on paper, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this dramatic moment. As we delve into this artwork, it becomes clear that Jegher skillfully conveys not only Susanna's distress but also the moral complexity of the narrative itself. The viewer is left contemplating themes of power dynamics, trust, and justice. It is worth noting that Christoffel Jegher's name appears prominently on the object itself—a testament to his artistic prowess and recognition within his community. This print serves as a reminder of both our shared cultural heritage and timeless tales that continue to resonate with audiences across centuries. It invites us to reflect upon societal issues that persist today while appreciating Jegher's masterful craftsmanship in bringing this poignant scene to life.
