EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jan Baptist de Wael, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of respite for weary travelers. The scene unfolds before an inviting inn, where a diverse group has gathered to rest and recharge on their journey. A man sits comfortably on a bench, engrossed in conversation with a woman while her child rests contentedly on her lap. Nearby, a dog curiously sniffs at the various belongings strewn about – perhaps searching for hidden treats or simply seeking companionship. The air is filled with music as three musicians entertain the crowd with their instruments - a cithern, mandolin, and guitar. Their melodies blend harmoniously with the sounds of nature surrounding them. In the distance, an ass and donkey leisurely ride past, adding an element of rustic charm to the scene. Every detail in this print captures the essence of travel and camaraderie; from the worn-out expressions on some faces to the lively conversations taking place between strangers turned friends. Even amidst their weariness, these travelers find solace in each other's company and take pleasure in simple joys. Jan Baptist de Wael masterfully brings this slice of life from centuries ago into our present-day consciousness through his meticulous attention to detail and skillful use of light and shadow. Quint Lox's reproduction allows us to appreciate every nuance captured by de Wael's brushstroke technique. This timeless image serves as a reminder that no matter how far we roam or how arduous
