EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "December" takes us back in time to the 16th century, showcasing a winter landscape filled with human activities and climatic features. Created by renowned artists Julius Goltzius, Gillis Mostaert (I), and Hans van Luyck between 1560 and 1595, this piece beautifully captures the essence of the final month of the year. In this scenic scene, we witness various laborious tasks associated with December. The focus is on preserving salted foods through canning techniques. A family is shown engaged in the process of conserving their food for the cold months ahead. The centerpiece of this activity is a slaughtered pig being smoked to ensure its preservation. The artwork not only highlights practical aspects but also showcases the natural beauty that accompanies winter landscapes. Snow-covered fields stretch as far as the eye can see, creating a serene atmosphere that perfectly encapsulates December's charm. Quint Lox skillfully brings together these historical elements from different artists into one stunning print that allows us to appreciate both their individual talents and collaborative efforts. As we gaze upon this remarkable composition from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand how our ancestors prepared for winter while marveling at nature's wondrous creations during this magical month.
