EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Contemplative" takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the historical and cultural context of that era. The engraving, created by Joseph Franz von Goez, portrays a French woman deep in thought while accompanied by her loyal pet dog. Dressed in traditional costume, she carries a walking stick as she strolls through the picturesque streets of France. The image exudes an air of meditative contemplation and introspection. The woman's pensive expression reflects her profound thoughts and inner musings. This caricature-like portrayal captures not only her character but also serves as a satirical commentary on society at that time. The artist's attention to detail is evident in this digitally cleaned image, allowing us to appreciate the intricate lines and shading techniques used in this German artwork from the late 18th century. It was originally published as an illustration for "Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten" by Georg Hirth. As we reflect upon this piece, it offers us an opportunity to contemplate our own lives and experiences within the broader scope of history. It reminds us of how art can transcend time and provide insights into different cultures and societies across Europe.
