EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut from Olaus Magnus' Historia de gentibus septentrionalibus transports us back to the Renaissance era, specifically to Rome in 1555. The print depicts a scene of pure mysticism and occult power as a witch brews up a storm on the open ocean. With her sinister spellcasting, she conjures waves that capsize an unfortunate ship in the middle of this tempestuous sea. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable, capturing the evil exterior of this powerful sorceress with every stroke of his woodcutting tool. The swirling hail and crashing waves emphasize the adversity faced by those who dare challenge her dark magic. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the deep-rooted fear and fascination surrounding witches during this time period. Their ability to harness supernatural forces was both awe-inspiring and terrifying for many. In Sweden, where Olaus Magnus hailed from, tales of witches were prevalent throughout history. This woodcut serves as a visual representation of these stories passed down through generations. While it is impossible to know if such mystical events ever occurred at sea or if witches truly possessed such powers, there is no denying the impact they had on society's imagination during the Renaissance. This print stands as a testament to our enduring fascination with magic and its connection to nature's most destructive forces.
