EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Third day of creation: separation of land and water" we are transported back to the year 1589, witnessing a remarkable artistic interpretation by Jan Harmensz Muller and Hendrick Goltzius. The image beautifully captures the biblical moment when an angel separates the vast waters from the firmament, revealing dry land for the first time. Every element in this composition is meticulously portrayed, showcasing Muller and Goltzius' attention to detail. A naked man stands at one end, representing humanity's presence on this newly formed land. His headdress adds a touch of mystique to his character while emphasizing his connection with nature. Surrounding him are vibrant trees and blooming flowers personified as if celebrating their newfound existence. A woman adorned with shells in her hair symbolizes the sea's influence on life, reminding us of its vital role in sustaining our planet. The artist's choice to include a carrot hints at fertility and growth that will soon flourish upon this fertile ground. Through their masterful brushstrokes, Muller and Goltzius bring Genesis 1:9-13 to life before our eyes. This mesmerizing print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection serves as a visual testament to human creativity inspired by divine narratives. It invites us to reflect on the wonders of creation while appreciating artistry that transcends time itself.
