EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white woodcut print by Jost Amman takes us back to the 16th century, while also capturing the essence of the 1920s. The image depicts a scene filled with action and anticipation as two soldiers on horseback prepare for war. Amidst a country landscape, these men exude an air of impatience and readiness, their armor glistening in the sunlight. One soldier holds a rifle firmly in his hand, showcasing the weaponry of that era. The horses appear strong and majestic, adding to the overall sense of power conveyed in this artwork. Jost Amman's attention to detail is evident through his intricate linework and shading techniques. Every element within this composition has been meticulously crafted, from the folds in their clothing to every strand of hair on their heads. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and drama to this piece, emphasizing both its historical significance and artistic value. It is fascinating how such an old woodcut can be preserved so beautifully even into modern times. As we gaze upon this antique print, we are transported back centuries ago when warfare was prevalent yet still captivated artists' imaginations. This work serves as a testament to Jost Amman's talent as well as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire us today.
