EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us into the realm of surrealism and symbolism. The image, created by Max Klinger in 1878 and published in 1881, depicts an intriguing scene filled with mystery and longing. In this Indian ink on paper artwork measuring 25.8x10.9 cm, we are presented with a fetishized object - a glove - which becomes the focal point of our attention. Placed upon a tree branch, it stands as a symbolic representation of unfulfilled wishes and hidden desires. The candle positioned next to the glove adds an element of mysticism to the composition. Its flickering flame suggests both hope and despair, as if illuminating our deepest fantasies while reminding us of their elusive nature. Klinger's masterful use of light and shadow creates an atmosphere that transports us into another world where reality intertwines with imagination. The intricate details invite contemplation as we ponder what lies beyond this enigmatic scene. As we gaze at "Desires" we find ourselves drawn into its narrative - perhaps reflecting on our own secret longings or contemplating the power objects hold over our lives. It serves as a reminder that desire can be both intoxicating and elusive; it fuels our dreams but also leaves us yearning for more. On display at Hamburg Kunsthalle in Germany, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless exploration of human desires
