EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing "Fantasy Interior with Jan Steen and the Family of Gerrit Schouten" painting, created by Jan Havicksz. Steen in 1659-60. The artwork, housed at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, USA, transports viewers to a world filled with symbolism and allegory. In this Dutch interior scene, we are introduced to Gerrit Schouten's family as they gather within their opulent home. The room is adorned with intricate details that reveal the family's wealth and social status. A prominent feature is a painting of an elephant over the fireplace, representing Schouten's brewery called "The Elephant" in Haarlem. Notably placed on the mantelpiece is a bust of Death inscribed with "Discite Mori" reminding us to learn about mortality. This memento mori serves as a reminder for all viewers to contemplate life's fleeting nature. Jan Steen masterfully incorporates various symbols throughout the composition, including a skull symbolizing death and transience. These symbolic elements add depth and meaning to this richly layered artwork. Through this piece, Steen offers us a glimpse into Dutch bourgeois life during the Golden Age while exploring themes of morality and wealth. It also serves as a self-portrait for the artist himself. This print captures not only an exquisite work of art but also invites contemplation on mortality and societal values during this period in history.
