EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Earthquake in Ragusa, 1667" we are transported back to a moment of chaos and devastation. The image, captured by the talented lens of Quint Lox from Liszt Collection, showcases the artistic brilliance of Jan Luyken and Pieter van der Aa (I) as they depict the aftermath of a catastrophic earthquake that struck Ragusa in 1667. The scene is filled with an eerie stillness as buildings lay crumbled and streets are engulfed in debris. The power of nature's wrath is palpable through every crack and crevice visible in the photograph. One can almost hear the echoes of cries for help amidst the silence. Luyken's masterful attention to detail brings life to each shattered structure, while Van der Aa's skillful composition captures both the vast scale and intimate human stories within this tragedy. Through their collaboration, they have immortalized this historical event for generations to come. As we gaze upon this haunting image, it serves as a reminder of our own vulnerability against natural disasters. It prompts us to reflect on our resilience as communities rebuild after such devastating events. Quint Lox has expertly preserved this significant piece from Liszt Collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical value but also its artistic merit. This print stands as a testament to humanity's ability to endure even in times of great adversity.
