EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ARS MORIENDI, c1450" takes us back to the 15th century, immersing us in a profound moment of human vulnerability and spiritual contemplation. The fifth page of the Ars Moriendi book is beautifully represented through an intricate woodcut from Netherlandish origin. In this scene, we witness a sinner on his death bed surrounded by his grieving family. Their faces are filled with anguish and sorrow as they bid farewell to their loved one. However, amidst this emotional setting, two menacing demons lurk nearby. These evil entities take advantage of the vulnerable state of the dying man to offer him advice regarding his wealth. The woodcut technique used in this artwork adds depth and texture to each element portrayed: from the detailed expressions on each family member's face to the haunting presence of the demons. It transports us back in time, allowing us to experience firsthand both the physicality and spirituality surrounding death during that era. This image serves as a reminder of our mortality and encourages reflection upon life's transience. It prompts us to ponder our own choices and priorities while contemplating what truly matters when facing our final moments. "ARS MORIENDI" captures not only a historical moment but also universal themes that resonate with audiences across centuries – reminding us all that even in times long gone, humanity grappled with questions about life's purpose and how best to navigate its inevitable end.
