EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant scene from Augsburg, Germany in the year 1520. The musicians of Augsburg are seen playing their instruments with great enthusiasm, providing lively music for the dancers of the Geschlechtertanz. This historical moment is beautifully depicted through a colour lithograph by an anonymous German School artist from the 19th century. The image showcases a rich tapestry of costume and musicality as both musicians and dancers come together to create an unforgettable spectacle. The players' intricate dress adds to the allure of this snapshot into history, transporting us back to a time when entertainment was filled with grandeur and artistry. Notably, amidst this joyous celebration stands a bear, adding an element of surprise and intrigue to the composition. It serves as a reminder that nature's creatures were often incorporated into performances during this era. This print is part of Otto Henne Am Rhyn's Kulturgeschichte Des Deutschen Volkes (Cultural History of the German People) published in 1886 by G Grote sche Verlagsbuchhandlung. Its inclusion in this esteemed work speaks volumes about its significance within German culture and history. Through this image, we gain insight into not only the musical traditions but also the choreography and cultural practices prevalent in Germany during the 16th century. It serves as a testament to how art can transport us across time and immerse us in different worlds while preserving our shared heritage.
