EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "SERPENTS, 1559" transports us back to the Renaissance era with its intricate woodcut design. The image showcases two serpents elegantly entwined, forming a mesmerizing double-headed creature. These serpents hold deep symbolic meaning as they represent both physical and spiritual union. In this French emblem from 1559, the artist skillfully captures the essence of unity and harmony through this strange yet fascinating depiction. The intertwining serpents create a visually striking composition that draws our attention to their intertwined bodies and fierce expressions. The ouroboros, symbolizing eternal cyclic renewal or infinity, is also subtly present in this artwork. This adds an additional layer of mystery and intrigue to the overall allegorical message conveyed by the piece. As we delve into this woodcut masterpiece, we are reminded of the rich symbolism prevalent during the Renaissance period.
