EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a magnificent emblematic scene depicting the construction of cabins for the tabernacle festival. The artwork features an ornamental cartouche adorned with hyssop, a symbolic plant associated with purification and spiritual cleansing. Positioned on either side of the cartouche are two cherubic putti, who bless it by presenting bundles of hyssop plants. At the center of this intricate composition lies the bustling construction site where tabernacles are being erected for the grand festival in Jerusalem. These temporary huts, known as sukkahs, play a significant role during Sukkot, also called the Festival of Tabernacles. It is fascinating to observe how hyssop, among other plants and herbs, is utilized in building these structures. The artist behind this remarkable engraving is Jan Goeree, whose name is mentioned on the object itself. Created in 1723 on paper using engraving techniques, this print measures approximately 160 mm wide and 135 mm high. As we delve into this image's rich details and symbolism, we can appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical significance. This print offers us a glimpse into ancient traditions and rituals that have shaped cultures throughout time—a true testament to human creativity and devotion to faith.
