EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a chilling depiction of a monstrous witch on a broom, dating back to the mid-17th century. The artwork is part of the esteemed collection at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Steeped in Baroque influences, this image delves into themes of sin, devilry, and witchcraft prevalent during that era. The intricate black chalk on paper technique used by Saftleven brings this haunting figure to life with remarkable detail. With her gnarled features and menacing expression, the witch exudes an aura of malevolence and dark magic. Her broomstick serves as both a mode of transportation and an emblematic symbol associated with witches throughout history. This piece not only reflects the artist's skill but also offers insight into society's fascination with good versus evil during the 17th century. It explores mythological elements intertwined with allegory and literature prevalent at that time. As we gaze upon this print from centuries past, we are reminded of humanity's enduring curiosity about supernatural forces and our eternal struggle between lightness and darkness. The presence of demons, Satan himself lurking in the shadows behind her, adds another layer to this eerie composition. Through fine art images like these preserved at Rijksmuseum, we can delve into history's rich tapestry while contemplating timeless questions about morality and human nature.
