EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Allegory of Injustice" depicts a powerful and thought-provoking scene. At the center of the image stands a woman, representing justice, holding a raised sword. She is surrounded by various symbolic elements that convey the theme of injustice prevailing in society. At her feet lie the broken scales of justice, symbolizing how fairness and equality have been compromised. The tables of divine laws and the book of human voices further emphasize this notion, suggesting that even moral principles and societal values are being disregarded. The presence of a wolf in the image adds another layer to its meaning. The wolf represents cruelty, rapine (the act of plundering), and greed - all traits associated with injustice. Its inclusion highlights how these negative aspects can corrupt systems meant to uphold fairness. The engraving was created as part of "Iconologie oder Ideen aus dem Gebiete der Leidenschaften und Allegorien bildich dargestellt fur Zeichner, Mahler, Dichter, Gelehrte, Erzieher und freunde Hoherer Geschmacksbildung" in Vienna in 1801. This book contains 225 illustrations exploring various passions and allegories. Overall, this print serves as a poignant reminder that justice can be fragile and easily disrupted by greed and cruelty. It prompts viewers to reflect on their own roles in upholding fairness within society while urging them to strive for positive change against injustices that persist today.
