EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "DANCE OF DEATH, 1538. Death and the Ploughman" takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the intricate woodcut artistry of Hans Holbein the Younger. Published in 1538, this particular piece was reproduced in 1547 as part of his renowned Dance of Death series. The image portrays an allegorical scene set amidst a rural landscape. In it, we witness the personification of death itself, embodied by a haunting skeleton figure clad in dark robes and wielding a scythe. The grim reaper stands alongside a plowman working diligently with his horse-drawn plow on an expansive field. Symbolizing mortality's omnipresence even in daily life and work, this woodcut serves as both a reminder and warning to those who toil on the land.

Holbein's attention to detail is evident throughout this masterpiece; from the farmer's worn hat to every stroke defining each element within the composition. This print not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also offers viewers an opportunity for reflection on our own mortality and how it intertwines with our existence.
