EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Spring, 1629" by Wenceslaus Hollar takes us back to a simpler time in the Bohemian countryside. The etching beautifully captures the essence of rural life during the 17th century. In this scene, we find ourselves outside a charming tavern nestled amidst rolling hills and blooming trees. A group of men and women gather together, enjoying the arrival of spring with drinks in hand. Their relaxed postures and content expressions reveal their appreciation for this moment of respite from daily routines. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, showcasing the intricate architecture of the building that stands as a testament to centuries past. Jan Vanden Velde's collaboration adds depth to Hollar's work, creating an atmosphere that transports us back in time.
