EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Catherine La Voisin, a French sorceress and accused murderess from the 17th century. The contemporary French line engraving captures her essence with haunting precision. In this image, we are confronted by a woman shrouded in mystery and darkness. The skeleton motif serves as a chilling reminder of death's presence, hinting at the sinister nature of La Voisin's alleged crimes. Surrounding her are symbols associated with the occult and mysticism - dragons representing power and danger, an engraved scythe symbolizing mortality, and an air of evil that lingers in every stroke. Accused of practicing witchcraft and poisoning those who sought her services, Catherine Deshayes Monvoisin became infamous for her alleged involvement in numerous murders. This print invites us to delve into the depths of history where tales of sorcery intertwine with whispers of forbidden knowledge. Intriguingly complex yet undeniably dangerous, La Voisin embodies both fear and fascination. She challenges societal norms by defying traditional gender roles through her mastery over mystic arts. This portrayal sheds light on women's agency within realms traditionally dominated by men. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing engraving, we are transported back to a time when witchcraft trials were prevalent and superstitions ran rampant. It is a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with dark forces lurking beneath our mortal realm – an eternal dance between life and death that continues to captivate our imagination even today
