EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, Quint Lox beautifully captures the essence of Alfred Rethel's "Auch ein Todtentanz I". The wood engraving, created by the talented German artist between 1816 and 1859, showcases his mastery in capturing the macabre. The image depicts a somber dance of death, with skeletal figures gracefully moving across a desolate landscape. Rethel's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving tool; each bone and sinew is intricately rendered, creating a hauntingly realistic portrayal of mortality. Lox's photograph expertly captures the texture and depth of the original wood engraving. The play between light and shadow adds an ethereal quality to the composition, enhancing its eerie atmosphere. Through careful framing and focus, Lox invites viewers into Rethel's world - one that forces us to confront our own mortality. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a testament to both Rethel's artistic genius and Lox's skillful eye for capturing its essence on film. It offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to bring home a piece of history while immersing themselves in the thought-provoking imagery that has captivated audiences for generations.
