EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Twelve Ages of Man: December" takes us on a visual journey through time and the passage of life. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 16th century, this print is part of a private collection that showcases the profound artistry and symbolism of each month. In this particular image, we are transported to December, the final chapter in the cycle of twelve ages. As we gaze upon it, we witness a scene filled with both melancholy and reflection. The central focus lies on a bed - a symbol often associated with rest or repose - where an elderly man lies at his deathbed. This poignant depiction serves as a reminder that life's journey eventually leads us all to our final moments. The intricate details within the print allow us to contemplate mortality and reflect upon our own existence. Originally printed in A Calendar for the Year 1923, these illustrations were reproduced from woodcuts created by Thielman Kerver in Paris back in 1522. It is fascinating to consider how these timeless images have been preserved throughout centuries, allowing us to connect with humanity's shared experiences across time. "The Twelve Ages of Man: December" invites viewers to ponder not only their own mortality but also appreciate the beauty found within every stage of life's passage. This extraordinary piece captures both our fragility and resilience as human beings while reminding us that even during our darkest moments, there is still profound beauty to be discovered.
