The Judge Bias, Shedding Tears
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant engraving by Willem van Swanenburg, created in the seventeenth century. This powerful image is part of Swanenburg's series "Thronus Justitiae," and specifically the ninth plate. The black and white depiction captures the essence of the concept of justice, with a male judge in the foreground, his face contorted in grief as he sheds tears. The scene takes place in a courtroom, with the trappings of the law all around: a gavel, a scale, and a sword of justice. The judge's robes, adorned with the insignia of his position, add to the sense of authority and solemnity. The tears streaming down his face, however, challenge the traditional image of an impartial and unemotional judge. This emotional portrayal of justice is a departure from the usual depictions of the time, which often showed the judge as a stoic and detached figure. Swanenburg's work invites us to consider the human side of the judicial process, and the weight of the decisions that must be made in a court of law. The image is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Low Countries, specifically the Netherlands, during the seventeenth century. Swanenburg's mastery of the engraving technique is evident in the intricate details and the expressive use of contrast and shadow. Today, "The Judge Bias, Shedding Tears" is part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and serves as a reminder of the complexities of the legal system and the human emotions that lie beneath its surface. The image continues to resonate with viewers, inviting us to reflect on the role of emotion in the pursuit of justice.
