EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless tale of Susanna in the bath, painted by Franz von Stuck in 1896. The image depicts Susanna, a figure from the Bible's Book of Daniel, as she is caught in a moment of vulnerability and innocence. The painting showcases Stuck's mastery of symbolism and fine art techniques, with intricate details that draw the viewer into the scene. Susanna's naked form is portrayed with grace and beauty, emphasizing her purity and virtue. However, lurking in the shadows are two old men who have deceitfully accused her of adultery. This juxtaposition between light and dark symbolizes justice and injustice, truth and lies. Stuck's use of oil on canvas brings a rich texture to the painting, enhancing its dramatic impact. The composition is carefully balanced, drawing attention to Susanna as the focal point while also incorporating elements that add depth to the narrative. Overall, this piece serves as a powerful reminder of themes such as morality, betrayal, and resilience. It invites viewers to reflect on their own beliefs about truth and justice while appreciating Stuck's skillful interpretation of this classic story.
