EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "The Fettmilch Rising: A Glimpse into the Dark Pages of History". This haunting print captures a significant event in Jewish history - the infamous Fettmilch Rising that unfolded in Frankfurt on February 28,1616. The image depicts an etching from around 1616-1617, now held in a private collection. Created by Georg Keller (1576-1640), this baroque artwork portrays the reintroduction of Jews to Frankfurt following an imperial proclamation. The scene depicted here unveils the deep-seated anti-Semitism and religious persecution prevalent during that era. Known as one of Europe's most violent pogroms, the Fettmilch Rising was named after its leader, Vinzenz Fettmilch. He incited a mob against the Jewish community residing in Judengasse (Jewish Street) within Frankfurt. The graphic arts used by Keller vividly depict the besetment faced by Jewish people during this dark chapter. The etching serves as both a historical record and a reminder of humanity's capacity for prejudice and cruelty. By exploring this piece of fine art imagery, we are compelled to reflect upon past atrocities committed against minorities and recognize their enduring impact on society today. It is crucial to remember these events so that we can strive towards building a more inclusive future where religious persecution becomes nothing but an unfortunate memory confined to history books.
