EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Sacrifice to Priapus" we are transported back in time to witness a scene of ancient ritual and devotion. The sculpture, created by Cornelis Bos and Lambert Lombard between 1537 and 1555, takes center stage as the focal point of the image. Surrounding the statue are seven women, each adorned with delicate flowers as they partake in anointing and decorating the sacred figure. Their youthful energy is palpable, emphasized by the presence of a young girl among them. Together, they engage in a profound act of sacrifice that speaks to their deep reverence for Priapus. The Latin verse inscribed on this picture adds another layer of meaning to its visual narrative. These lines echo through time, carrying with them echoes of ancient beliefs and traditions associated with Priapus worship. Through Quint Lox's lens, we are granted access to a moment frozen in time - one that invites contemplation about faith, devotion, and cultural practices from centuries past. This print serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic expression that captures the essence of sacrifice in all its complexity. As we gaze upon this remarkable composition from Liszt Collection, let us reflect on our own understanding of sacrifice while appreciating the beauty found within this timeless image.
