EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an illustration from Francis Quarles Emblems, a renowned work by the English poet Francis Quarles. Originally published in 1635, this particular print dates back to 1895 and was featured in The Magazine of Art, Cassell and Company. The image transports us to a churchyard in 17th century Britain, immersing us in a world where life and death intertwine. A grotesque yet thought-provoking concept is depicted through the use of religious symbolism and Victorian aesthetics. At the center of the illustration stands a performer dressed as a jester, holding an orb and sceptre. Their mask hides their true identity while emphasizing the transient nature of existence. Surrounding them are various symbols associated with mortality – skulls, skeletons, graves – all reminding us of our inevitable fate. The intricate foliate border adds depth to the composition while reflecting both English literature and Christian iconography prevalent during that time period. This fusion creates a visually striking piece that speaks volumes about art's ability to convey complex ideas. Preserved for generations by dedicated collectors like Harry Rogers and Charles Henry Bennett, this print offers us a glimpse into history's artistic achievements. It serves as a testament to Francis Quarles' enduring influence on poetry and his exploration of profound themes such as life's fleeting nature. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, let it remind us to contemplate our own mortality while appreciating the beauty found within these Emblems from centuries past.
