EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a title page illustration by R. van Leuve for his work "Mengelwerken" published in 1723. The image depicts a scene where a man, armed with a whip, has gathered together an intriguing assortment of men, women, and animals. His authoritative presence is evident as he stands amidst this diverse group. Adding to the mysterious atmosphere of the composition is a devilish figure lurking behind them all. This sinister character possesses snake-like hair and holds a burning torch, symbolizing danger and temptation. Standing alongside him is the personification of pride, further emphasizing the complex dynamics at play within this gathering. The print itself is marked on both sides: III Part - Pag. 251, indicating its placement within Van Leuve's larger body of work. It measures approximately 128 mm in height and 83 mm in width and was created using paper etching techniques by Jacob Folkema. This remarkable artwork transports viewers into an enigmatic world filled with symbolism and intrigue. Its intricate details invite contemplation about power dynamics, human nature, and our collective fascination with darkness and temptation.
