EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Who litigates must be shameless, patient and rich" by Hendrick Goltzius in 1597 is a remarkable piece of art that delves into the complexities of litigation. The Dutch-German artist skillfully captures the essence of this legal battle through his intricate details and thought-provoking symbolism. The image showcases a litigant man standing on a grand staircase, surrounded by various objects that represent different aspects of litigation. In his hands, he holds bags worn by women, symbolizing greed and deceit often associated with legal matters. Latin inscriptions can be seen throughout the print, emphasizing the importance of patience and shamelessness required to navigate the intricacies of litigation successfully. Goltzius' attention to detail is evident as every element within the composition serves a purpose. The use of light and shadow adds depth to the image while highlighting key elements such as money scattered on the ground, representing wealth's significance in legal battles. Quint Lox's expertly captured photograph preserves Goltzius' masterpiece for generations to come. This print invites viewers to reflect upon society's relationship with law and justice while appreciating Goltzius' artistic prowess from over four centuries ago
