EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled 'Two Saints Making Shoes Being Tempted by the Devil,' is a captivating work of art that tells a compelling story of faith, temptation, and perseverance. The image, created as a woodcut or xylography print, depicts two saints, likely shoemakers, seated at their workshop crafting shoes. The serene aura surrounding them is disrupted by the presence of the devil, who, in the form of an entity with horns, a burning aureole, and holding a burning stake, tempts them with scissors. The saints, unwavering in their devotion, continue their labor, their halos glowing brightly, symbolizing their martyrdom and resistance to evil. The historical significance of this print lies in its exploration of the themes of temptation and martyrdom, which have long been prevalent in religious art and literature. The artisan's skillful use of the engraving technique brings the scene to life, creating a vivid and supernatural atmosphere that transports the viewer to another time and place. The intricate details, from the saints' clothing to the devil's sinister features, add depth and complexity to the story, making it a fascinating piece of art and historical artifact. This print, with its rich symbolism and captivating imagery, is a testament to the power of art to convey complex ideas and emotions. It invites us to reflect on the human condition, the power of temptation, and the importance of staying true to our beliefs, even in the face of adversity.
