EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing woodcut print from 1608, we are transported to the dark realms of Milan's occult practices. The image captures a chilling scene as the Devil himself takes on the form of a flying goat, carrying a witch towards an unholy gathering known as the Sabbath. The artist, Francesco Maria Guazzo, masterfully depicts the malevolent energy that surrounds this forbidden event. The intricate details in the woodcut bring to life every element of this diabolical journey. The goat's wings stretch wide against a foreboding sky while its eyes gleam with an otherworldly intensity. As for the witch being carried away by this sinister creature, her expression is one of both trepidation and anticipation. Her presence adds an air of mystery and danger to the composition, leaving us wondering what role she plays in this macabre ritual. Guazzo's Compendium Maleficarum serves as our guide into these realms of prophecy and divination - where augury intertwines with black magic and ancient rituals come alive once more through his artistry. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, mankind was fascinated by tales of darkness and sought understanding within them. It invites us to explore our own curiosities about hidden worlds beyond our comprehension while cautioning us about their potential dangers.
