EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a Horizontal sundial from around 1575, featuring an allegorical representation of justice (IUSTITIA) and a mirror. Made of silver, leather, and paper, this intricate instrument showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the artisans from the sixteenth century.
The sundial is not just a tool for measuring time but also serves as a symbol of balance and fairness with its depiction of justice. The inclusion of the mirror adds another layer of symbolism, reflecting the importance of self-reflection and introspection in seeking truth and righteousness.
Intricately designed with scales, swords, and other symbolic elements, this sundial is not just a practical device but also a work of art that tells a story. It speaks to the values and beliefs held by people during that period in history.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact through the lens of modernity, we are reminded of the timeless quest for justice and truth that transcends centuries. The combination of science, artistry, and philosophy embodied in this sundial invites us to ponder our own understanding of these concepts in today's world.
